-Amber keeps a [[https://​drive.google.com/​drive/​folders/​1dcErr2ZNhefKkgQffhWeGLrXdPKc4zVC|google drive here]] ​with handy information about pay, including ​your pay rates. Note that all of the sheets are for the academic ​year, i.e. 2019 means academic year 2019-2020 (and summer pay thus refers to summer 2020). Each student ​also has financial statement that they can check to monitor their pay status.+Yasasha Ridel (yasasha@berkeley.edu) is the point person for all matters to do with pay. Every yearshe will email you a personalized spreadsheet detailing where your funding is coming from (based on information ​that you will provide her), and how much you can expect to get paid in a given semester, as the breakdown of funding may be uneven throughout ​the year. She will also send out google form at the end of each semester asking for information on where your funding will come from for the next year - you should discuss this with your research advisor

-If you are teaching ​(which should be most of you), you should receive a Graduate Student Instructor (GSI) Contract via email from Amber a few weeks before the semester starts. Once you have replied ​to Amber saying you accept the contract, you should get an email from the staff member in charge of payroll. ​ Make sure to inquire with said staff member about withholding for Federal and state taxes. ​ Much of our pay (fellowships,​ in particular) do not have automatic withholding,​ and if you don't withhold extra during the year, you'll end up with a hefty penalty come tax time.  ​+If you are teaching, you should receive a Graduate Student Instructor (GSI) Contract via email a few weeks before the semester starts.
