Summer Prepay Deductions: Summer Employment/Family Status Changes
June 26, 2023

If you had summer prepay insurance premiums deducted from your spring, 2023 paychecks, and have had an employment or family status change, contact your institution benefits contact for information on how your insurance benefits and deductions may be affected.

What are Summer Prepay Deductions?

Summer prepay insurance premiums are deducted from spring paychecks to cover the cost of continuing insurance coverage through the summer months (contract break) and are in addition to regular biweekly insurance premium deductions.

For more information, review the Summer Prepay Deductions web page. The March 2023 portal article: Summer Prepay Insurance Premium Deductions also provides information.

What if Your Employment/Family Status Changes Over the Summer?

Employment Status: If your summer or fall 2023 employment status changes after summer prepays were deducted, you may receive deduction refunds. If you will be terminating employment, and will not return in fall 2023, contact your institution benefits contact to determine your employment termination date and insurance coverage end dates.

Family Status: If you experience any other status change such as a marriage, birth of a child, divorce, contact your institution benefits contact for information on how your insurance benefits may be affected.

Note: 9-month employees’ insurance premium deductions will resume on the September 21, 2023, paycheck.
