Accurate Paperwork

Imagine reviewing hundreds of timesheets in one day and you’ll begin to see why we need your help! Here are some ways you can assist us:

• Complete all paper work in black ink • Print employee number, full legal name, and address at the top of timesheet
• Use military time
• Print full legal consumer name (last, first) in the provided line
• Service type must be filled in
• Do not mark in “Earn Type” or “Docum. Signed” boxes
• Sign and date the bottom
• Submit on the date due
• If mailing in, please use correct postage - If unsure of postage amount, go to www.usps.com for assistance.
What's Your Number?

When you were little, your teacher stressed the importance of learning your phone number, address, and even your birthday. We’re going to flash back to your early days and stress the importance of knowing your employee number. It may seem like just another unimportant three or four digit number, but it is necessary in order for us to identify you! This number must be on all time sheets and expense reports submitted. We don’t want to confuse you with another employee! Without your employee number on your paperwork, processing may be delayed which could cause delay in payment. If you don’t know your number, you can find it on your pay voucher in the upper left corner noted as File (ignore the zeros) or give me a call at 365-0487 x1041 and I’ll be happy to help you. Thanks for your cooperation!
W2's Are Coming Soon!

It’s already the beginning of fall and the holiday season is fast approaching. This means tax time is quickly approaching and we will begin preparing your W-2 form soon! Please help us prepare for the end of the year by reviewing your social security number and current address located on your pay voucher (now accessible through iPayStatements). In addition, if your personal circumstances have changed, you may want to adjust your federal withholding amount by completing a new IRS W-4 form. If corrections are necessary, please contact Katie at 365-0487 x1041 or ksellers@arceci.org. If you need a new W-4 form, you can access it on iPay or we will send you a copy. Then you can kick back and enjoy what’s left of the fall!
It's Time To Sign Up For iPay!

All Arc employees now have access to the ADP iPayStatements, which allow for the viewing of pay vouchers electronically. ADP iPayStatements also provide a pay check calculator and access to printable W-2 and W-4 forms.

If you prefer paper vouchers for your records, iPayStatements allows you to print your own. Payroll information can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! Signing up for direct deposit maximizes the effectiveness of iPayStatements. If you haven’t received your iPayStatement sign-up directions you may print them off The Arc’s website at www.arceci.org under the Employee tab. If you have any questions, need help obtaining a packet, or have problems utilizing this great feature please contact Katie at 365-0487 x1041 or ksellers@arceci.org.
