In order to accommodate a ConnectCarolina system update on the weekend of April 22-23, the deadlines for the April 2023 monthly payroll (M10) are moving forward two business days.

2022 Calendar Year End Actions and Dates for HR Managers, as well as other important Payroll Resources and Reminders

To notify Payroll of an out-of-state employee, please submit the form “Notice of Employee Working Outside of North Carolina” to MultistateTax@unc.edu and one of our Tax Team members will process the information.  The best time to submit this form is before an employee has been paid for work out of state.  However, all cases should be reported as soon as they are identified to best comply with various state requirements.

Beginning May 6, ConnectCarolina will now include an enhanced functionality feature that allows employees to view or print multiple paystubs at the same time.
