In order to ensure smooth processing into our Administrative HR System, please complete the following forms in ink and return to the Newark Campus Office of Human Resources, 1179 University Drive, Newark, Ohio 43055. You will only need to complete the State of Ohio and Federal (W-4) tax card if you have been employed with The Ohio State University during the past 12 months from the effective date of your offer letter and have previously completed all forms. The Social Security Form SSA-1945 is a new form that became required as of January 1, 2005, which you may not have previously completed.

If you are working in a benefits-eligible appointment, you will receive a benefits enrollment pack directly from the Columbus campus once your appointment is processed in the HR System. You will have 30 days from the receipt of the packet to make your benefit selections.
