The Employer Pensions and Benefits Information Connection (EPIC) is a set of Internet based applications that allow registered employers access to their employees' pension and, if applicable, health benefit account information. The Division of Pensions and Benefits has designed EPIC to be both fast and easy to use. Once you begin to use EPIC, we believe you will find it to be one of your most useful resources for the accurate information you need for the day-to-day administration of your employees' pensions and benefits.
Access to EPIC is granted through the MyNewJersey website. MyNewJersey is the platform through which the State of New Jersey provides a variety of e-business services and online information. By routing access to EPIC through MyNewJersey, the Division of Pensions and Benefits is able to provide registered employers with a technology platform that is secure, efficient, and easy to use.
When you first sign onto EPIC you are taken to the EPIC Home Page.
On the left side of the EPIC Home Page you will find "Employer Information" that identifies the employer through which you have access and helpful links — the online help screen is available by clicking the "EPIC User's Guide" button.
A drop-down box identifies the pension fund and employer location number and name through which you are logged onto EPIC.
If you have EPIC access to other pension funds or employing locations, you may select them by clicking on the arrow at the right of the drop-down listing. Once you select another location number from the list, the employer information for that employing location will be displayed on the left side of the EPIC Home Page.
Note: As an EPIC user, you are only permitted access to information about employees of the employing location shown in the drop-down box at the top of the "Employer Information" area. The single exception to this security precaution is the "Check for Existing Account" application described below in Part II.
On the right side of the EPIC Home Page are the "Employer Applications". The application area contains:
Text fields for entering the membership number, Social Security number, or the name of employees whose account information you wish to retrieve.
Buttons for calling up the various online applications. Additional information about these applications is provided in the next section.
Note: EPIC users have access to a variety of online applications. The specific group of application buttons you will see depends on the type of employer you represent and the level of access authorized by your Certifying Officer.
Note for MBOS Users
If you have EPIC access through your employer and are also registered as a member in the Member Benefits Online System (MBOS), you will need to select the role you wish to open for the session each time you log on (below).
Note: If you are registered with multiple roles through EPIC and/or MBOS, you may click the "Select MBOS Role" button on the EPIC Home Page to leave the current EPIC session and access your MBOS account.
EPIC Support
If, after reading this EPIC User's Guide, you still have questions about or difficulty accessing or using EPIC, registered users may contact the Division's Employer Education Unit at 609-292-7524 or send an email.
Part 2.1 - EPIC Applications
Navigating Between Applications
All of EPIC's Employer Applications contain a navigation bar at the top of the page that allows you to begin a new search in the current application or access other EPIC applications without having to return to the EPIC Home Page.
To begin a new search in the same application, enter the employee's membership number or Social Security number in the appropriate field and click the "New Search" button. To go to another application, click the application name which is found in the "Select Application" drop-down box.
Check for Existing Account
In most cases, EPIC users are only permitted access to information about employees at their employing location. An exception to this is provided for the Check for Existing Account application. This application is designed to allow employers to check for an existing pension account and determine the status of any prior pension accounts (active, expired, withdrawn, retired, etc.) when hiring new employees.
Knowledge of an existing active pension account is important so that the employer and employee can complete the appropriate enrollment or transfer application.
Knowledge of retiree status is important because of salary or position limitations that can affect retirees who return to public employment.
Access to the application requires the employee's Social Security number. Enter the Social Security number on the EPIC Home Page and click the "Check for Existing Account" button.
The page that appears will show the status of any New Jersey State-administered pension account listed for that Social Security number. If the account listed was with your employer it is marked with an asterisk.
Statement of Account
The Statement of Account application allows you to view the Personal Benefit Statement for any of your enrolled employees.
Access to the application requires the employee's membership number, Social Security number, or name. Enter the membership number, Social Security number, or name on the EPIC Home Page and click the "Statement of Account" button.
The page that appears will show the statement current as of the last quarterly posting by the Division of Pensions and Benefits.
On the left side of the page you will see information about the pension service credit, total employee contributions to the pension fund, life insurance coverage status, and an estimate of future retirement benefits.
On the right side of the page is the employee's personal identifying information, date of enrollment, birth date evidence and veteran status, and - if available - information about health benefits coverage under the SHBP or SEHBP and/or enrollment in any supplemental savings programs (State Employees Deferred Compensation Plan, Supplemental Annuity Collective Trust of New Jersey, etc.).
An icon is provided at the top of the page to "Print" a copy of this information page for the employee or for your records.
When you are done, click the "Home" button to exit the Personal Benefit Statement.
Payroll Certifications
The Payroll Certifications application allows you to view the Certifications of Payroll Deductions issued by the Division of Pensions and Benefits for your employees. Payroll certifications are issued to authorize the start of pension deductions for new employees, for back deductions due to the Division, pension loan payments, or arrears/purchase payments (certifications are archived for up to two years).
To access the application, click the "Payroll Certifications" button on the EPIC Home Page.
Certifications are retrieved in "groups" of 25 and presented five at a time. If the certification you are looking for is not in the first five returned, click the "Next" button to view the next five certifications in the group.
When you reach the end of the first group of 25, the "Next" button will not be visible. To view the next group of 25 certifications, click the "Next Group" button. The next 25 certifications will then be loaded and displayed five at a time.
The total number of records available for viewing will be listed in the bottom right table cell.
To view a specific certification, click the check box that corresponds to the certification you want and then click the "Details" button. You may also request to view more than one certification by clicking on several check boxes (or click the "Select All" box to view all certifications from this search). Selected certifications are presented one at a time with navigation buttons to go to the "Next" or "Previous" certification.
Note: The payroll certification for newly hired employees can be viewed only upon the completion of the enrollment process. You may check the enrollment status using the "Enrollment Application Status" application.
Chapter 52 Annual Membership Certification
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 complete enrollment training and annually certify for each member of the 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 online application shows the status of the Enrollment Training requirement for the employing location’s Certifying Officer and Supervisor of the Certifying Officer;
The status of the Annual Membership Certification; and
If required, the Annual Membership Certification can be completed through the online application.
To access the Chapter 52 application, click on the “Chapter 52 Annual Certification” button on your EPIC Home Page.
All EPIC users with application access can view the “status” of Enrollment Training and the Annual Certification for the employing location.
On the status inquiry page, the date of Chapter 52 Enrollment Training and Annual Certification are shown for the Certifying Officer and the Supervisor of the Certifying Officer.
If a date field on the page is blank, it means that either the required Enrollment Training or the Annual Certification has not been completed.
Certifying Membership
Only the Certifying Officer and the Supervisor of the Certifying Officer can complete the Chapter 52 Annual Certification.
Important: If either the Certifying Officer or the Supervisor of the Certifying Officer has not completed the required Chapter 52 Enrollment Training, a message will appear when that individual accesses the application to indicate that training must be completed immediately and before access to complete the Annual Certification will be allowed. See the Division’s Chapter 52 Web page for additional information and instructions on the Enrollment Training requirement.
Failure to complete the required Enrollment Training and/or the Annual Membership Certification will prevent the acceptance of any new enrollment or transfer applications from the employing location until the training and certification requirements are completed.
If the Chapter 52 Annual Membership Certification is due, a message appears on the page.
The “Click to Complete Annual Certification” button will also be available. To continue with the Annual Certification process, click the button.
Please read the information on the next page of the Annual Membership Certification.
If you are able to certify that each member of the retirement system is properly enrolled, click “Yes.” You will receive an online confirmation and the process is completed.
If you are unable to certify that each member of the retirement system is properly enrolled, click “No” and you will be shown a page with detailed instructions on how to report any improperly enrolled individuals to the Division of Pensions and Benefits. Once any instance of an improperly enrolled worker has been reported with the Division, you will receive a follow-up email from the Division with instructions that you may return to EPIC and complete the Annual Membership Certification.
When you are able to certify that each member of the retirement system is properly enrolled, you will receive an online confirmation and the process is completed.
You should print a copy of this confirmation page for your records.
The Chapter 52 annual membership certification is now complete. The Division will notify Certifying Officers and Supervisors of Certifying Officers by email when the Annual Certification again becomes due for completion.
Please note: It is important that the Certifying Officer and Supervisor of the Certifying Officer keep their email addresses current in EPIC to assure the accurate and timely delivery of this information. If necessary, update your contact information using the EPIC Security application.
