Reform Alert # 13 - 2012 MPSERS Reform Requires System Changes

December 1, 2012, the Employer Reporting website will be enhanced to accept new changes to retirement reporting due to the 2012 MPSERS Reform. Changes will affect the Retirement Detail Report File Layout and member and employer contribution rate calculations.

Technical support or payroll vendors will need to make changes to payroll files that are uploaded to the ORS Employer Reporting website. If your school uses the carry forward or manual reporting methods you should be aware that there are changes to the Detail 4 record format and changes to data required on the Detail 2 record.

The attached changes will be effective December 1, 2012.

If you have any questions, please contact Employer Reporting at ORS_Web_Reporting@michigan.gov.

Thank you,

Office of Retirement Services
