PeopleSoft HRMS Known Issues and Information – 02/24/06 Please distribute the following as needed: KI0053 - Effective 3/1/06 - Submission of Paper Application Form (2A) for New TRS/ORP Member no longer required by TRS Effective 3/1/06, the GAFirst institutions and any other institution reporting in the new TRS reporting format, should no longer submit the paper Form 2A to the Teachers Retirement System. When TRS receives a contribution from an employer for a new member, a membership record is created automatically. TRS sends a welcome letter, along with a request for beneficiary information, directly to the new member. Although the institution will no longer send the form to TRS, TRS recommends that the institution still include this form in a new employee's enrollment package so that the institution will have this information in the employee's file.
