Student Employees & Graduate Assistants
W2 Wage and Tax Statement
The 2015 W2 Wage and Tax Statement contains information related to income earned from 12/12/2014 through
12/10/2015, and is used to file your 2015 federal and state income tax returns. The State is delivering the 2015
Statement electronically. If you worked during this timeframe, an electronic W2 Statement will load on your Core-CT
Reporting System employment record, however, how you receive your Statement will be set according to a default
status - based on set of criteria.

If you worked as a student employee or a graduate assistant between 12/12/2014 and 12/10/2015, you must
receive a W2 statement.

Student employees who are employed beyond December 10, 2015, are considered to be active employees and
will receive their Statement according to the Active Employee Default Criteria noted below.

Student employees who have their employment ending – on or prior to December 10, 2015, are considered to
be terminated employees. Terminated employees lose their access to Core-CT, and will default to a W2 mailed
to their home address in mid-January.
If you have questions or need a Core-CT password reset, please contact the Human Resources department.
