Subject: San Antonio Medical Foundation (SAMF) Proposals due Tuesday
Importance: High
Good morning,
There are 20+ proposals planned for the SAMF call due Tuesday. OSP is seeing various versions of the budget for student positions.
Here is budget guidance based on the solicitation and communication from the SAMF contact:
1. GRAs should be budgeted in Personnel, not Scholarships or Stipends
2. Non-benefits eligible fringe is allowed since only federally mandated fringe on non-permanent positions can be charged
3. Faculty or staff with full-time permanent positions are not allowed in the budget
Reach out to me if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Jennifer

Incorrect OASI taxes posted February 2026
by Elizabeth Sandoval
You might notice incorrect fringe charges posted for February 2026 Payroll.
A notice was sent out to the BSCs to provide to all areas that the FICA process failed last month and due to this failure, many student employees who are exempt from OASI taxes had them deducted from their checks. Anyone actually exempt from OASI taxes will have them refunded back in this month's payroll processing. They will see a refund in their March payroll and the department will see their employer match refunded.
Shout out to Joan Antao for noticing the issue and following up with Payroll!
