We all agree that saving is a good idea. That’s the easy part. Figuring out how to manage your expenses so you can save, or save more? That may not be so easy. America Saves Week is your opportunity to commit—or recommit—to saving for today and for later in retirement. Saving is more than just a good idea. It’s possible!
America Saves is a national campaign that encourages individuals and families to assess their savings and take financial action. This is a great opportunity to expand your financial knowledge and set some new savings goals.
The University of Wisconsin is promoting the America Saves Week campaign. In the upcoming weeks be on the lookout for in-person workshops, interactive webinars, videos, handy tips and information on saving and financial wellness. Look forward to more information as we encourage savers – or potential savers – just like you to set a goal, make a plan, and save automatically.
Pursuing your financial goals, that’s what saving—and America Saves Week—is about.

Employees and spouses currently enrolled in the State Group Health Insurance plan are eligible for an annual $150 wellness incentive (administered by StayWell). Below are updates to the 2018 Well Wisconsin program as well as an update on previously communicated changes to the 2019 program.
2018: In addition to completing the health screening and health assessment, a Well Wisconsin Well-Being activity will also be required in 2018 to earn the $150 wellness incentive. A few examples of well-being activities are: Million Steps Challenge, 21 Day Meditation Experience and Self-Directed Coaching. More information about the Well Wisconsin Well-Being activities is available on the StayWell website. To earn the 2018 incentive, one Well Wisconsin Well-Being activity, the health screening and health assessment must be completed and submitted to StayWell by October 19, 2018.
2019: Changes to the wellness incentive structure were considered in 2017. One consideration was to provide a premium differential instead of the current wellness incentive $150 gift card. It has been decided that a change to a premium differential will not take place for 2019. This option will continue to be explored by the Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF).
For additional information on the Well Wisconsin program and how to receive your $150 incentive in 2018, visit https://wellwisconsin.staywell.com or contact the StayWell HelpLine at 800-821-6591. Throughout 2018, StayWell will send emails and home mailers to employees with information about the program.

The Income Continuation Insurance (ICI) program is an ‘income replacement’ benefit plan that replaces up to 75% of your gross salary if you are unable to work due to a short or long-term disability.
If you are not currently enrolled in ICI, you may be able to enroll during the Annual ICI Deferred Enrollment opportunity through March 1, 2018. If you are currently enrolled in the ICI plan and have Standard ICI coverage, you may be eligible for Supplemental ICI coverage. Eligible employees were notified by email on January 19 from the UW System HR (uwsystemhr@uwsa.edu) email address.
Please see the Income Continuation Insurance section of the UW System Employee Benefits website for more information regarding eligibility and income continuation insurance benefits.
To apply for coverage through the Deferred Enrollment opportunity, you must complete an Income Continuation Insurance Application (ET-2307) and return it to your human resources office on or before March 1, 2018. ICI coverage elected through deferred enrollment will be effective April 1, 2018.

The 2017 W-2 Wage and Tax Statements are now available online in the MyUW Portal. Launch the Payroll Information module and click on the Tax Statements tab. Paper copies of the W-2 will be mailed via U.S. mail by January 31, 2018.
A printed W-2 from the portal is a valid document for tax filing. However, employees filing a W-2 printed from the portal, must write their Social Security or Individual Tax Payer Identification number in the “a” field at the top of each Form W-2 section. Social Security and Tax Payer Identification numbers were removed from the online W-2 statements to increase the security of sensitive online information.
Some employees will also receive additional tax forms from the University (Examples: 1095-C, 1042-S, Fellowship/Scholarship Letter).
Filing Your Taxes
Employees should use their W-2 Form, not their final 2017 earnings statement, to file taxes. Some employees have had adjustments made to their 2017 taxable earnings since the last 2017 payroll was paid. These employees may have an additional earnings statement generated reflecting these adjustments. These adjustments will already be reflected on the W-2 Form that the employee receives.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will begin accepting returns on January 29, 2018 for the 2017 tax filing season. Employees may want to consider filing their return as soon as all necessary tax forms are received to minimize the chance of a fraudulent return being processed using their Social Security number, or Individual Tax Payer Identification number. More information is available on the IRS website.

Responsible Service Policy (Alcohol): Alcohol service and consumption may occur in a number of settings at the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay. Differentiation has been made between private and public service of alcoholic beverages. Private service includes use at a private party, reception, or other event by which the individuals in attendance is limited. Public service includes serving alcohol at an event open to all members of the campus. Whenever alcohol is sold or served at a private or public event on campus, it shall be done applying the restrictions set forth in this policy.
Revised Policies:
