Summary This page describes the process that must be followed to confirm dependency allowance. For more information, refer to these resources: | |||
Step | Action | ||
| Action by HR | ||
01 | Set up the initial enrollment for staff who are eligible for dependency allowance. | ||
02 | Around May or early June every year, send an email requesting dependency allowance confirmation, with a link to the transaction in myHR Self-Service (available only on World Bank's intranet). | ||
| Action by Staff | ||
03 | Access the 'Dependency Allowance - Dependency/Household Enrollment Confirmation' action in myHR Self-Service (available only on World Bank's intranet) and verify the enrolled dependents in your household. NOTE: Staff who have not confirmed their Dependency Allowance information within 60 days of the life event and/or annual confirmation exercise, will receive the benefit payment prospectively and not as of the effective date. | ||
04 | If you have changes in your household, you can report the changes through myHR Self-Service (available only on World Bank's intranet). HR Operations will then contact you to obtain information, such as a birth certificate, a marriage certificate, divorce papers, or the date from which a child earned income over the threshold indicated in Annex A: Income of a Dependent Child to Staff Rule 06.02 Dependency (Tax Equivalency) Allowances. | ||
| Important Guideline (Only For HQ) |
|
|
| If your spouse was not employed during a particular calendar year and had no other source of income, select the $0 to $29,999 gross salary range. The salary ranges above $30,000 are in ranges of $1,000 because if the spouse’s gross salary exceeds $30,000 in a year, the benefit for next year is reduced by 1 percent for each $1,000 the spouse earns over $30,000. There is no reduction when the spouse earns less than $30,000 gross. For this reason, the exact income below that amount is not required. |
