Special form changes deal with leaves, contributions

As mentioned elsewhere in Primer, there are some additional changes to the Retirement Notice, the Notice of Termination, and the Service, Earnings, and Contributions Report regarding members who – at the time they retire, terminate from HOOPP, or die – are on a leave or temporary period of reduced earnings that hasn’t been reported to HOOPP.

• If the member doesn’t make contributions for the leave, and then terminates, retires, or dies during the year, you’ll need to report the start and end dates of the leave/period as well as the type of leave/period it was


• If the member does make contributions, you will also need to report:
  • the deemed earnings on which contributions were based

  • the start and end dates of the portion of the leave/period where no earnings were received

Examples of how to calculate deemed earnings are provided on the back of each of the three forms.
