REPORT WISCONSIN RETIREMENT #

Once set up is complete the report should be run and the file created and verified.

Annual Transaction Report (ET-2533) #

The Annual Transaction Report should include service, earnings and employee paid contributions for all participating employees of the employer who have not been reported during the calendar year. Included should be those on leave of absence at year-end and any employees not on formal leave but for whom no earnings were paid during the year.

Filings are to be completed by January 20 or January 31 depends on type of employer (see section 706 of WRS publication ET-1127).

All active (not terminated) employees that have an official enrollment record at year end will be selected.

Employee Transaction Report (ET-2533) #

The employer must notify the WRS when a participating employee terminates employment retirement coverage by reporting him/her on an Employee Transaction Report. This report serves as a mechanism for reporting other types of employee transactions when:

• An employee changes category due to change in job duties.
• A previously submitted employee transaction requires correction.
• Late reported earnings or salary changes must be reported.
• An employee takes a leave due to medical reasons.
  
  

The reporting of terminated employees and other types of employee transactions should occur within one week after final reportable earnings have been paid. For state agencies on Central Payroll, employee transactions will be transmitted via the bi-weekly payroll tape. Corrections must be made through Central Payroll rather than sending paper forms to ETF.

All employees who have been terminated, or have employment category changes during a user-specified date range will be selected for reporting.
