UCPath recently implemented the below changes.

Did You Know?

Benefits Vendor File Schedule

The Benefits Vendor File Schedule for 2026 is available in the UCPath Transactor Hub under the following path: 

Benefit & Payroll Resources > Processing Calendars > Benefits Calendars > Vendor File Schedule.

Here is some important information to know about the files.

Changes Files

• New enrollments (for new hires and new dependents) 
• Enrollment changes
• Terminations

Full Files

• All active enrollments
• New terminations since the last changes file
• Demographic changes these are not sent in change files 
  • Demographic changes include address changes, name changes, gender changes, DOB, SSN

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) 

• New enrollments
• Terminations
• Mid-year changes (such as increases or decreases in annual pledges)
• BW and MO contributions
• Monthly files include all active enrollments and demographic changes

Social Security Number (SSN)

• The following vendors do not accept enrollments for employees without SSNs: 
• Delta Dental, Principal (PD), HealthNet (Active), WEX (FSAs), Health Equity (HSAs)

Addresses

• HMO plans require a home address for enrollment. 
• HMO plans require a U.S. address; foreign addresses are not accepted.
• HMO plans do not allow P.O. Box addresses.UC does not send 1095-C or W-2 statements by email or text message.

Any message that includes a link or attachment claiming to provide access to these documents should be treated as a phishing scam. These messages are intended to collect personal information. To securely access 1095-C or W-2 statements, employees must log in to UCPath directly using a safe, known link.

Update Your Personal Information in UCPath

January 9, 2026 is the deadline to update or verify tax information.

UCPath will begin generating W-2 statements in mid-January. It is essential for employees to verify that their personal email and home address are accurate in UCPath online to ensure they receive their information correctly.

The UCPath Help Site provides simulations and job aids for self-service activities performed in UCPath Online. Please visit the site to review navigation and videos with step-by-step instructions.

RASC Portal New Location

As mentioned in The Link, the Retirement Administration Service Center (RASC) portal has moved to MyUCretirement.com. This site is managed by Fidelity Investments in partnership with UC and brings retirement resources together on a single, unified platform.

Job End Date Monitoring

Monitoring Job record end dates can help prevent unintended consequences such as termination, pay discrepancies, termination of benefits, system access interruptions or overpayments.

When the "Expected Job End Date," is reached, UCPath will terminate all employees whose jobs have expired and when the "End Job Automatically" box is selected. To avoid unintended impacts, we recommend doing the following:

1. Run the “Jobs with Approaching End Dates” CDW report (CDW navigation: Team Content > UCPath CDW > Workforce Administration > Jobs with Approaching End Dates Report).
2. Review the pulled records to ensure the Expected Job Record End Dates are correct.

If errors are identified, initiate the appropriate transaction(s) to update the records (see “Job Record End Date Monitoring” knowledge base article for instructions)
