If two parking files (I-178) are submitted during the same pay period, the file submitted last takes precedence over the prior file

If pre-tax limit rates change from one calendar year to another (currently $280.00 pre-tax for 2022), locations must submit a new I-176 IB file for those employees that pay over the pre-tax limit. This will ensure UCPath doesn’t follow the prior pre-tax rates and cause any downstream issues with employee checks
If an employee has been terminated from UCPath and still has an ‘Active’ parking/transit enrolment, the I-182 (Parking Reconciliation Report) will continue remit data as if that employee was still being deducted
Transactions submitted for biweekly employees do not initially create an error if the end date doesn’t fall within the pay period
If submitting both biweekly and monthly transactions, ensure you are meeting appropriate deadlines
