Training Tidbit: Wyoming Retirement Reminder

As you are aware, the contribution rates for the Wyoming Retirement System increase to a total of 18.62% on July 1, 2021.

As required by the Wyoming Retirement Office, the transitional payroll covering hours worked in June and July (for example, the pay period from 6/20/2021 to 7/20/2021) must have the old rates reported for the hours worked through June 30, while the hours worked on or after July 1 reported at the new rates, unless the school district has requested and been given approval to calculate the higher rate for the hours worked through June 30.
