I have a suggestion regarding the problem of past employment verification.
Richmond may not have such information but the Department of Social
Security in D.C. may.  It does take a while and there is a small fee.
Also, maybe the Department of Taxation.  It has been a while since I had to
do this and I think I started with the federal tax agency (figure They
would have the information) and though I can not remember too clearly, I
believe they directed me to the Social Security department (retirement
benefits).

My agency ,and many others we have spoken with, are having difficulty
determining how we are going to comply with legislation that went into
effect July 1 allowing state employees with prior part time service to
convert part time hours to service credits for retirement.  Our problem
stems from the fact that payroll records are only maintained for 5 years,
and most of the affected employees worked here as many as 30 years ago.
Can anyone tell me of records that may be archived in Richmond that might
have information on hours worked?  I have spoken with the APA about this,
and they tell me they are currently working with VRS and the AG to figure
out a solution.  We have already received requests from former employees
for certification of hours worked, and don't know what to tell them.
Thanks.
