Once a supervisor offers you a position they will give you an appointment form which you must submit to the Financial Aid Office. If you did not work on campus in the previous academic year you will also need to print out and complete the forms listed below. You cannot begin working until all the required paperwork has been submitted to the Financial Aid Office.
All work-study students must submit:
- HRMS-2 Form - Personal Data - (fillable document)
- Federal Work Study Appointment Form
New work-study students must also submit the following documents:
- Federal W-4 (PDF)
- NY State IT-2104 (PDF)
- Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9) (PDF)
- NY State Employees' Retirement System Membership form
The I-9 requires that you show proof of eligibility to work in the US. This is done most often by showing a social security card, birth certificate or passport. Photocopies are not acceptable. The original document must be shown prior to beginning work. For further details on what documents can meet this requirement review the last page of the I-9 form (PDF), columns A and C. Section 1 must be completed by the student. Section 2 must be completed by the supervisor.
All work-study students should have the Conditions of Student Employment form on file in the department in which they are employed.
