HR Tip: End of Year Tasks (Including Verifying your Information for W-2s)

The end of the year is a great time to verify that your personal information in the UCD Access/Passport portal (my.cu.edu) is up to date before W-2s are sent in January.  

  • Please check your home and mailing addresses and phone numbers, and update if needed.  
  • Please be sure to add a personal email address if you don’t already have one on file.  
  • This is a great time to check that you have the most current emergency contact information on record too.   

 Follow the steps below to verify or update this information:  

  1. Log into the portal 
  2. Click the CU Resources tab. 
  3. Open the top center CU Resources Home drop-down menu, then select My Info and Pay. 
  4. Choose the My Info tile. 
  5. Click on the arrows in the Home Address and Mailing Address boxes to verify or update your information. 

 Step by step instructions can also be found here.  

*Note for student employees: Updating this information in your student portal does not update it in your employee portal. You must update this information in both portals.  


Other Year-End Reminders:
 

  • Verify your Social Security number. 
  • Review your paycheck for accuracy (it’s best to check this every pay day). 
  • Double check your tax withholdings with the IRS Withholding Estimator. (Reminder for international employees: You should not make changes to your W-4 without first consulting an international tax specialist.) 
  • If you would like to designate a different withholding rate for Colorado state income taxes, you can submit a DR 0004 withholding form. (If you do not submit this form, the information in your federal W-4 will be used to set your Colorado state withholding rate).
