Info on W-2 forms

Many thanks to those of you who have already given your consent to receive your W-2s online. If you haven’t, please consider doing so to enable us to make it available to you sooner, and to make it accessible to you in MyGFU (self-service) when you are ready to print it.

This will save the university the time and expense of purchasing and stuffing paper W-2 forms and envelopes (over 2,000 last January). And of course, it is also friendlier to our environment. In the future, there will be a $5 charge for replacement W-2s issued and mailed in hard copy.

In order to receive a W-2 in online form only (instead of receiving a paper form), the law requires that you give your consent. This should take you only about 30 seconds to do, so I encourage you to take care of it as soon as possible – perhaps right now:

  1. Log in to mygfu.georgefox.edu
  2. From the menu at left, select “Self Service”
  3. Select “Payroll and Compensation”
  4. Select “W-2/W-2c Consent”
  5. Read the statement and check the box to give consent
  6. Enter your GFU password as a confirmation of your identity and click “Continue”
  7. Click OK

You’ll receive a confirmation e-mail of your decision shortly after completing this process. And just to be clear, you will only have to do this once — not every year.
