About this file
This is an Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) Independent Contractor/Worker Acknowledgment form, which must be completed by individuals providing personal services to Ohio public employers who are classified as independent contractors rather than public employees. The form must be submitted within 30 days of beginning services and requires personal information, current employer details, and public employer information including service dates and descriptions of services to be provided.
The form outlines eight key criteria that define an independent contractor under Ohio Administrative Code section 145-1-42(A)(2), including being paid by contractual arrangement, providing their own supplies and equipment, and receiving an IRS Form 1099. The document specifies that independent contractors are not eligible for OPERS contributions but have a five-year window to request determination of their status if they disagree with their classification. Additionally, the form includes important provisions regarding retirees who return to work as independent contractors and potential impacts on their retirement benefits, particularly regarding the OPERS Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) and OPERS Retiree Medical Account (RMA).
