Special Notice on Group Term Life Imputed Income
05.06.2019 - Group Term Life (GTL) imputed earnings are the taxable value of life insurance benefits over $50,000. We have been working to resolve a calculation error which resulted in a lower GTL imputed income value for any employee with supplemental life insurance since the start of 2019. Those employees already had an initial correction to increase GTL earnings during the third pay period of the year. A second correction is still required and will appear in the pay check of May 10th. This final correction will bring the calculation back to the standard we have consistently used in prior years. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact your campus Human Resources office for more information.
