ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP CERTIFICATION DUE FROM EMPLOYERS
Chapter 52, P.L. 2011, (N.J.S.A. 43:3C-15) requires that both the Certifying Officer and the immediate Supervisor of the Certifying Officer receive training in enrollments and annually certify for each member of a State-administered retirement system, that the enrolled person is eligible for membership in the retirement system in accordance with the statutes and regulations of the retirement system.
The Chapter 52 Annual Membership Certification online application is available to employers through the Employer Pensions and Benefits Information Connection (EPIC).
On March 14, 2013, a Certifying Officer Letter was sent to designated and trained Certifying Officers and Supervisors of Certifying Officers informing them that they must both complete the Chapter 52 Annual Membership Certification within 30 days of receipt of the letter. Failure to comply with the annual certification requirement prevents the Division from accepting any new enrollment applications from the employing location until the certifications are completed.
Read the Certifying Officer Letter or see the information below regarding Chapter 52 Enrollment Training and other requirements under this law.

CHAPTER 52 ENROLLMENT TRAINING
All Certifying Officers and Supervisors have been assigned access to Chapter 52 Enrollment Training and have been e-mailed the Authorization Codes and Training Notifications for access to the HRDI eLearning system.
If your employing location's Certifying Officer and immediate Supervisor have not yet completed the training, it is important that they do so as soon as possible. Employing locations cannot process enrollments or transfers until both the Certifying Officer and the Supervisor complete this required training. See the Chapter 52 Training Instructions
