I. Welcome - (Cliff Lee) Cliff reminded attendees of the procedures for evacuation in the event of an emergency and/or "Shelter-in-Place" crisis situation. Be aware of the construction equipment on the mall due to weekend activities, please use caution. Also, please sign the sign-in sheet.

II. Update on NFC Status - (Penny Forbes) Thank you for all of the good will, well wishes, food, gift cards, ($1,000's of dollars worth!) etc. from all of our clients. Gary Gaspard - Customer Support is being restructured and we have some staff in Grand Prairie (TX); however, a large segment is currently located here in the South Bldg. 75% of his staff lost everything (homes, clothes, cars, etc). Thanks to the NFC staff committed to ensuring that clients were paid. The staff is committed to doing this for the clients regardless of their personnel situation. The outreach from clients has been incredible. We are very pleased to say that 100% of the NFC employees have been accounted for.

A. Alternate Work Sites - We have employees in several locations, including Texas, DC, Philadelphia, Birmingham, AL and Alexandria, LA.

B. Continuation of Business - We realize that not everything is back to normal but are working hard to get it there. Your patience is greatly appreciated.

C. Return to New Orleans - We are hoping to be back in Building 350 (the Center's main building in New Orleans East) within the next 6 weeks, at least with some staff until we can get all employees back there. The facility itself sustained minimal damage, however, everything in the area is gone (eg., homes, schools, stores, banks, fire departments, EMT facilities, gas stations, bridges, etc.). We need to ensure that employees returning to work at Building 350 can continue with a semblance of a normal life.

D. Debbie Byrne - Hello, I am the Chief of the Administrative Management Staff (AMS) and my staff is responsible for the service level agreements with the agencies, budget, contracting, facilities mgmt, security, mail, etc. Very proud when the first pay went off despite the personal hardships. Also trying to organize the internal activities. 83 people on her staff, all accounted for but not all reactivated. Additional updates:

1. The TANO building (which housed our TSP staff and was located down the street from the main building) is a total loss. The warehouse facility (located near the TANO building) is also a total loss. Both will be bulldozed. We're able to get back into Building 350 with a team and hoping to bring back as many employees as possible. We are anticipating by November 1st to have about 50 employees working there and will continue this over the next several weeks/months until we are all there. We are working with FEMA to establish a "Trailer City" for employees who do not have a place to live. The goal is to have the majority of employees back to NOLA by February 2006.

E. IBWC indicated they are glad to hear about this first hand and indicated NFC should not feel bad about talking about the damage and destruction and changes to their lives.

III. 2005 Pay Changes (Cliff Lee) - Penny added that Marty Curole is now deployed to Grand Prairie and is working the GESDREQUEST mailbox. You will start hearing from her on your project numbers. Please keep in mind that not everyone has been deployed. NFC is hoping to get Randy Gonzales' development staff back to Building 350 since the majority of his staff have viable housing in the NOLA area. Once they are back there, work on these projects can resume. Thanks for your patience.

A. 3R's - Project # 50463 - these are considered incentives now and no longer a bonus; the incentives are now based on the employee's adjusted salary, including locality pay. We hope to have relocation and recruitment incentives in place prior to PP-01, 2006. Debby Tatum indicated that they hope to have this for PP-25. This will be strictly the lump-sum payment recruitment and relocation incentive; installment payments will continue to be paid through SPPS. Likewise, we hope to have the retention incentive for PP-25; this will be the biweekly retention incentive; installment payments or balloon payments will continue to be paid through SPPS.

B. Retained Pay - Project # 50569 - Effective May 1, 2005, employee's on pay retention are no longer entitled to locality pay. If you put someone on retained pay after May 1, 2005, the system will automatically give the employee locality pay; you need to have the T&A's paid manually or the employee WILL be overpaid.

1. Request for Agency Input on Non-Title 5 Positions (DOJ, FDIC, TR, GAO, and GPO - You have some employee's on retained and/or saved pay that are not subject to OPM guidance. Cliff contacted these agencies directly regarding their employees; input due by October 28th. PPSPS sent a notice to CAPPS well over a month ago and requested feedback from agencies that were not going to follow the new OPM pay regulations on retained/saved pay. To date, we have only received feedback from Treasury; if you do not wish to be included in the programming change, you also need to let us know by October 28th. UPDATE: DOJ and FDIC have also provided feedback on their non-Title 5 employees on retained/saved pay. Q: What is the timeframe? A: We don't know that information right now, but we are shooting to have this prior to PP-01 and maybe before PP-25. NFC is not planning to generate any of the required personnel actions for these employees; agencies will need to review each case to ensure that the pay is set correctly, particularly for employees placed on pay retention after May 1, 2005. Roughly 1,500 employees, across all 4 CV's, will be impacted.

C. LEO's Pay Plan GL - Project # 50570 - OPM is proposing a new pay plan for those employees on the LEO 0491 pay table and a discontinuance of PRD 6 for these employees. Some agencies have complained about this proposal; OPM has delayed implementation of this change until October 1, 2006.

D. Special Rate Supplement - Project # 50571 - OPM is changing the methodology for recording special salary rates that it has followed since the inception of special salary rates decades ago. OPM is requesting a PP-01 implementation government-wide. Under this change, the scheduled salary will always reflect the general schedule rate (except for Leo's at GS-3 thru 10). The special rate will show as a special rate supplement. The two fields will be added together for the Adjusted Salary. NFC hopes to put this change in place no later than PP-01.

1. TR - you said prior to PP-01 or concurrent? Cliff - OPM has finalized this recommendation; NFC has not yet established an implementation date; but it might be more practical to implement this change concurrent with PP01 pay raise.

2. TR - should we expect additional SSR folks to come off? Cliff - Yes. FC: this complicates the pay raise logic. Cliff - you are assuming there is logic. FC: we have an HR connect pay raise in PP-26 and this will definitely make things worse.
NOTE: Each January when OPM publishes new locality pay tables and new special salary rate tables, some special rate tables will be discontinued because the locality rates of pay exceed the special rates at all grade levels. In other cases, some special rate tables will be compressed because locality rates of pay at higher grades exceed the special salary rates at those levels. When the locality rate exceeds the special salary rate, the employee is no longer entitled to the special salary rate.

E. Temp Prom to Perm Prom - Project # 50572 - OPM changed the policy and it is no longer optional for an agency to keep the employee at the higher grade or lower and re-promote. Now agencies MUST keep the employee at the higher grade (e.g., NOAC 703 directly to NOAC 702 (permanent promotion). No date for implementation, but probably after PP-01.

IV. Benefits Update (Jody Nyers)

A. TSP Sweep - Thanks for the quick turnaround in reviewing and returning your reports. NFC is on target for the sweep tonight before PP-20 PAYE is executed. This eliminates the agencies from contributing their funds too soon. The reason for the sweep was because agencies had processed actions coding the employee with TSP Eligibility Code 1 which meant that the employee only had to wait one open season for agency contributions when in fact they needed to wait two.

1. Q - TR: the last thing I have is the bulletin that was issued in June 2005 and reading it, I would have made the same mistake. A: Jody - the bulletin issued in June caused some confusion and prior to Katrina the bulletin was revised. Unfortunately I cannot find a hard copy and its not available via the Pubs & Forms link on our home page. FC: TR indicated that a brand new employee should always be a "2," right? A: Jody - yes, most employees should be coded TSP Eligibility Code 2 because they need to wait two periods for the agency contributions. If you are an employee with some prior service you may be a legitimate TSP Code 1. Theresa Trentacoste joined us and indicated she'd follow-up on that specific bulletin. Hope to have access resolved today and we'll post it on NFC's webpage. Theresa walked everyone through the process of finding pubs w/o using the search engine feature.

Post Meeting Note: Jody found the WORD document from 08/23/2005 and shared that with the Clients. Sweep was completed 10/19/2005. The bulletin was issued on 8/19/2005 and has been retrieved and was forwarded to CAPPS Reps on 10/27/2005.

B. Open Season's for FEHB & FSA - for both, these run from 11/14 to 12/12/2005.

1. BAL 05-405, Significant Plan Changes was forwarded to you on Monday, 10/17/2005. This covered the significant plan changes. NFC does all of this for you.

2. FEHB Cards rec'd from the Carriers - Last year it seemed that many employees did not receive their FEHB cards timely. According to OPM, they should receive them within 15 calendar days of the carrier receiving the enrollment transaction. OPM expressed a concern that agencies often "hold" their open season transactions and process them at the end of open season. This creates a backup for the carriers to comply with this 15 day requirement. OPM asked that agencies process the enrollment transactions as quickly as possible after receiving them. I advised OPM that a big issue we had was medical offices not accepting electronic version of SF-2809 changes. OPM said the electronic confirmations should be sufficient to use for medical treatment if the cards have not been received timely. He said they have worked with the carriers and they are supposed to be honoring. If anyone has this issue, please notify Jody and she will forward it to him. OPM has notified carriers to work with their medical offices to accept these documents.

a. Q: USDA - I thought we were changing the electronic letters? A: Jody - I believe we did change the ESS documentation to include details such as covered family members. We will double check this. FQ: I thought we were going to change RFQS letters also. A: Jody - As far as I know we have done this. Randy Speed is here and he will check on this since his staff did the programming on this.

Post Meeting Update: The EPP/ESS confirmation letter for FEHB changes does include the dependant information. It also provides documentation of an employee's FEHB change request. RFQS letters have also been modified.

C. OPM Benefits Meeting was held on 10/6/05. There were several highlights and OPM issued notes on them. Jody forwarded the notes to all agencies. OPM indicated that the week of February 27 - March 3, 2006 will be the next OPM Super Conference...check www.opm.gov for more information and to register.

D. Earnings & Leave Statements - the hard copy mailings resumed in PP 19.

1. The Long Term Care insert that was arranged prior to Katrina in PP 16 or 17 and is now scheduled for the PP-22's ELS.

2. The insert for FSA's will be included in PP-21 and just like the LTC insert, the FSA insert is at no cost to the agencies. Several agencies have opted out of the FSA insert, they include: ARC, FDIC, SM Trust, FCA & FCSIC - are there any other agencies that do NOT want this insert in their agencies ELS? Seeing none, Jody will alert NFC to proceed with the insert.

Post Meeting Note: This has been done and will be included in PP 21's ELS.

E. Retirement Processing -

1. Patrick Foret indicated that they are working with OPM to expedite placing those employees that retired (via a separation NOA processed in our system) in interim status as soon as possible. They plan to submit to OPM the IRR for retirements effective in PP 17, 18 and 19 by early next week. Please note: If your agency did not process a NOA thru the system, Patrick's staff cannot submit the IRR to OPM.

2. I know many of you have asked about the phone number to contact Patrick and his staff to discuss your retirement cases and we have provided that number to you, the CAPPS Rep and/or your Agency's Benefits Rep. However, his staff is being flooded with calls from employees (not the Reps, but rather employees) and this impedes the processing of retirement actions. Also, due to the Privacy Act, his staff cannot release information directly to the employee, which has in turn caused employees to become quite irate. We know that you don't know what to tell them. However, giving them the direct phone number to our NFC staff is not the answer. We know that these employees are quite anxious about their retirement actions and we are doing the best we can to get them processed as quickly as possible. Penny did add that the phone numbers are also posted on the web-site which makes it easy for employees to locate it; however, we do ask that CAPPS Reps and Agency Benefit Officers and their staffs NOT give out the phone numbers please.

a. Q: DOJ: Are employee's calling Grand Prairie? A: Jody - Yes.

b. Q: USDA: Patrick did get permission to put the in IRR status? A: Jody - Yes.

c. Q: BPD: when did the email go out because I didn't receive it. Did you send it to the Benefits Officer? A: Jody - I sent it to all CAPPS Reps. Will send it again.

V. 2005 W-2 Information (Gary Gaspard)

A. Testing & Processing Schedule

1. Requests for testing has passed and we rec'd SSN's from 17 dept/agencies requesting to participate. We are still on track. Next week we have a conference call with the W-2 staff to make sure that they have staff, programs, etc. to facilitate the test. If it changes we will notify those 17 agencies participating.

B. WTWO client will not be available for tax year 2005. The main reason is that we do not have the resources available to make the changes to the client version of the software. Randy Speed provided an update on the Reporting Center (RC) option. We were testing this prior to Katrina and are resurrecting the server and will continue to test. We expect to have it ready for production within the next couple of pay periods. If you have access to RC now, you will still have to do a special request to the RC for this access. Alisa added that if you have not given NFC permission to load your detailed data on the RC, you will have to do that in order to get to this. It will be in the financial group area of RC, not in the workforce group.

1. Q: BPD - does that mean that W-2INQ will not work? A: Yes. The client version will not be programmed.

2. Q: Do I ask for W-2 access for RC? A: No, you need access to the RC. FC: We already have that. A: Then yes, add that.

3. Q: Are they still going to do RC training? A: Yes, the staff is now here and can provide that training. And if your budget included travel, you no longer have to cover that because they are already here in the DC area.

4. Additionally, Gary indicated if you need to load data to the RC, the individual submitting this may not be the individual who normally submits this information. It is usually an HR director who has the authority to do this for privacy/security reasons. Security officers used to do that. There is now a memo and the policy is formal that the HR director now must do this.

a. Q: TR - at the department level or agency level? A: The department level makes the call. FQ: will it be business as usual for w-2 for the EPPs? A: YES

b. Q: FDIC - If you already have access to financial, do you still have to submit a request? A: Yes. FQ: When can we submit these? A: You can do that now. Penny will notify Jim Julian to start expecting this. Not everyone in the agency should have access to your W-2 data. Should ask for Financial/W-2 data.

c. Q: Are we on schedule with EPP letters? A: Yes, business as usual.

d. Q: Can the E&L statements / Reporting Center version be used for filing taxes? A: Yes. FQ: Will it have history? FA: Will double check but we think it may be 2 years. Penny also reminded clients that the Turbo tax link provided last year will also be available this year.

Post meeting update: The history for E&L statements is actually loaded back to PP-25, 2002.

e. Q: Will the client history still be there? A: Yes, we will notify you when we plan to sunset it.

f. Q: IWBC - EPP is not affected right? A: Correct.

g. Q: If the employee is separated and lost his/her W-2 (or it was mailed to their old address) and we don't have access yet what do we do? A: Contact NFC South.

h. Q: TR- will the RC allow you to have it mailed to an address? A: No you print and mail on your end.

i. Q: CFTC - we have an employee who needs an old W-2 (1996!) Treasury said tell the employee to call IRS. 6 years retention for pay roll records is standard.

Post Meeting Update: NFC confirmed that W-2 information is loaded back to 1998 only.

VI. Employee Express Update / Employee Self Service (George Morris) There are a lot of minor/moderate changes for the new open seasons etc. but agencies should contact their EEX rep for details.

A. EPP no updates.

1. We are in the middle of an audit and they are looking at changes employees made. You can go into EPIC and /or IRIS. Smithsonian asked if there was a report out there and he was provided with a FOCUS report that gives a listing of employees who had used ESS. Smithsonian will e-mail it to us and it will be included in a message to CAPPS. Believe it came from DOJ. George did add that EEX did provide a closeout file to agencies separating which lists all action submitted for each employee (most agencies leaving EEX do not get this data since in is massive and cannot be uploaded to NFC is a usable format). ESS doesn't do this; however, the functionality is being looked at by the EPP/ESS programmers.

Post Meeting Note: The report was prepared by DOJ and emailed to the CAPPS Reps on 10/20/2005.

VII. Race and Ethnicity Reporting (George Morris)

A. Race and National Origin Code - accessions prior to 07-01-2006 currently capture one designation (6 options in a 1-digit alpha field). Ethnicity Identification Code criteria has been published by OPM (6 position Y/N designation code) for accessions on or after 01-01-2006. Ethnicity requirement for reporting purposes will be effective July 1, 2006. Accessions prior to that are permitted to continue submission the old data for reporting purposes. No guidance for conversion of old to new values has been issued, and OPM has not clarified if there will be any transition to the EHRI requirements. The new ethnicity values will require a database change. We are still trying to get a handle on OPM's vague guidance.

1. Q: TR - Does it have a project #? A: There will be, but since most of OPM's issuance were in draft we don't have a project # (per Randy). FQ: Who is doing the requirements? A: NOLA will do them, based upon OPM's final regulations (when they are issued).

VIII. Alternative SSN's - SI has had this issue raised, and followup with OPM has indicated that Social Security Administration has made recent changes in this area which will require changes to current processes for handling "made up" SSNs used for identification purposes for foreign nationals being payrolled by NFC (and other payroll providers, as well). George has called OPM and we will provide further info/clarification when it is received.

VIII. DOL's ELS Proposals (DOL Rep)

A. Discussion on proposed changes to the E&L - DOL Rep indicated there was nothing to add except to vote on this. Q: what was the outcome from changes that were presented to your rep last month; weren't they going to include client comments and recommendations? A: Unknown at this time. Some feedback from CAPPS was the concern for union negotiations and if the unions were not included in the ELS changes and agreed w/them, then USDA's vote is NO. The DOL Rep did not have a revised ELS to share w/CAPPS. Vote would have to be unanimous. Q: What was the outcome of the mtg at DOL? A: DOL Rep will gather the final ELS and report back to CAPPS on this next month and until then, no vote taken. C: TR says everyone should see everyone's comments before we vote. If LMR group did not include a variety of things, then it's a dead issue because unions will not accept it. C: DOL - if anything was off, would be a NO, if we add things, then it could be a YES.

IX. User & Work Group Updates

A. Awards - (Jo Bonner) - The next quarterly awards meeting is November 9, 2005 at 9am. There are no specific topics on the agenda at this time. If there are specific items you wish to discuss, please e-mail JONote: this group may be closed down in the near future due to lack of active issues/needs and projected staff shortages.

B. Benefits - (Jody Nyers) - Next meeting will be scheduled in November.

C. EPIC - (Penny Forbes) - NFC staff is located in multiple places, therefore, no meeting has been scheduled at this time. Q: if we have a problem with EPIC/HCUP who should we send it to? A: PPO box - which is PPO@usda.gov

1. Concerns over BEAR job -- this dealt with CV06 only, BEAR job did not complete successfully....if you processed a HCUP doc in PP 20 and because PP 19 data is still there, it will not clear until after PP 20's process is completed. Q: FMCS - what about the awards, we have cash awards out there, will they pay again? A: did they apply to the database? FA: Yes, however they look like active documents and we are concerned they will reprocess in PP 20? A: No they will not. FMCS would like to delete the 'A' but if it's applied, it's not active any longer to delete. These docs were entered in PP 19 and were stored on the corporate database for proc'g and won't be reprocessed. Note: If you see these actions twice in IRIS, you have a problem. Look at IRIS 125 to see if you see the award in PP 19 and if you also see an award in PP 20 then you need to let us know. FC: There was a HCUP pkg created because we weren't told not to, will they just sit there? A: DELETE those. If applied for 19 will only affect the employee's where a personnel action was proc'd in 19. FC: It was part of a roll back, what should we do? A: Francine - DELETE IT! When will history be updated? If HCUP proc'd - rolled back - history will need to be reloaded. The process to have their history reloaded is done via a feature in EPIC to add the SSN to reload it and must wait till after PP 20 processes.

2. C: FMCS contacted NFC several times on several issues and no one responded with a clear answer ....communications were poor. A: Penny apologized for this. FMCS understood but said a note to CAPPS would have been helpful. Was not a development issue but a proc'g issue in Philly whereby the job didn't complete and we didn't realize that until clients called us. Again, we apologize for this. We're working on better communications links, we've heard many concerns about timely replies.

3. C: CSOSA: We processed a lump-sum payment that should not have applied because the hours to be paid did not match the database hours. A second document was entered with the correct number of hours and it also applied. Can I get them both deleted so I can start over? A: Francine Murray - Yes, we can do that. JO has the SSN and will provide it to Francine.

4. C: DOJ - has anyone experienced transactions in PP 16 that didn't make it to history, on 125 but not 525? Eg., changed agencies but cannot see the change. A: Randy G - send a SSN to CAPPS to be forwarded to Texas for PHIS resolution.

D. EPP - (Randy Speed) - No report

E. FESI (Donna Speed) - No report

F. PMSO - (George Morris) - may meet early next year, but workgroup may be shelved due to staff shortages and functional realignments.

G. T&A - (JO Bonner) - The T&A User group meets the 1st payday Thursday of each month. The next meeting is November 10th. For those who are wondering, STAR 5.0 will not be ready on January 19, 2006. As referenced earlier in the meeting, NFC is not at full staff and not all of our programmers are deployed. STAR 5.0 is still a priority for NFC but with the down time experienced due to Katrina, the inability to bring everybody back at this time, and inaccessibility of the development servers; January is no longer a realistic time frame. If things go well, we may be looking at sometime in the late Spring. Randy Speed is working on what is needed to get things back on schedule. Once work on STAR 5.0 can begin again, NFC will provide a new release date.

X. Potpourri

A. SF-50's - Randy G - we had some issues w/some of the production jobs not running properly - RFQS was loaded but not in the correct sequence. If you want to run your 50's for PP 18 only, you may also get 50's from PP 17; we're looking at the file to get access and re-sequence them. At the moment they are not there, which means the agency may receive current, prior or a combination of current/prior. FQ: what about history 50 using a single SSN? And when are pre-Katrina files going to be loaded for them? A: Randy - PP 12 forward should be updated soon; prior to 12 don't know because we don't have that data. Our servers loaded in NOLA - we pulled several PP's but not indefinitely. Our advice is to "print often and early." Some reps indicated they have rec'd PP 15 and 16 but they're not getting all of the actions within a given PP and if you do it individually you won't get them all either. Several agencies are having a variety of print problems. Some agencies have mixed data. Print errors are a different issue. Penny will send an email to CAPPS. JO reminded clients that several of them raised SF-50b printing issues at the September CAPPS meeting. Due to the discrepancy in reported issues at that meeting, clients were asked to go back and double check the specific details on the problem and send JO an e-mail. Five agencies responded and those are the issues that NFC is researching. Hopefully, those issues are comprehensive for the client base. FQ: Could the problem be out of sequence affect the 1150's not being found? A: Same process, so yes it could be.

B. LOC - anyone have any EEX docs that applied in EPIC but not in IRIS for PP 20? Personnel Inquiry said maybe because it's the same acct number that could be the problem; however, it isn't the same number as one is for checking and one is for savings. The number is the same but the route number is different. C: Don't you need a suffix to differentiate between the checking and savings accounts? A: Can you send us the SSN? Yes, will send it to you.

C. LOC - We made a union code change in PP 18, canceled it and it did not PAYE in 19; however, an old User Id showed up and it applied. How? A: Unsure, send the specifics in an email to Penny via Penny.Forbes@usda.gov

D. USDA - anyone having a problem with FOCUS library? We have three libraries and one has zero reports. No one else had this problem. Send info to Penny. OP1 is the problem.

E. DOJ - anyone know that the feed to TALX work number is being updated, at a conference and had not rec'd an update from NFC since PP 16? A: Penny will check w/IRMD and we'll get the info to CAPPS.

Post Meeting Note: TALX is up and running.

F. BPD - are planning to install additional phone lines and/or additional people in TX since communications aren't good. A: We're hoping to deploy folks back to New Orleans to help with this issue as there are only 150 seats in TX but we can handle this when we get to NOLA and put folks there. Sorry and thanks for your patience.

G. CFTC - BEAR download CD's - when will they resumed? A: Don't know when but eventually. FQ: is there another way we can get it? A: via FTP, contact your CSR about an alternative method. Certain resources in Philly have not been rebuilt, therefore, we can't burn the CD.

H. IWBC - At one time, the hard copy of the Leave Error report was discontinued. It is now being mailed to timekeepers again. A: JO will look into it.

Post Meeting Update: On October 24th, JO sent an e-mail to the staff that handles the dispatch reports explaining that the mail-out process for the TIME 4004 report had been accidentally been restored and to please discontinue it.

I. DOL - EARN problems, can't get into this system? no access to EARN error messages? A: Penny says to download it off the download center to refresh it then call your CSR who can come to your location to get it restored. 2nd request - TIME suspense report - used to be faxed to our Payroll Offices? A: Resources not available from Mose's area. Migration carryover and we have people that have not gotten paid. C: Can anyone help DOL? What about CULP54 and receives no data. A: Penny says CSR will contact DOL direct.

J. DOJ - status on CPDF reporting requirements, has a project # been assigned? A: Yes, there is a project # but don't have a target date other than test files to OPM in March 2006.

K. TR - are there any plans for another FESI window or bring up TR IDMS 62 test database? A: talked to Wanda and it should be up next week. Donna will check on FESI schedule for PP 06.
