REMINDER: TRAVEL FOR NONIMMIGRANT EMPLOYEES
Employees on J-1, H-1B, TN, E-3, or O-1 visas sponsored by the RCUH must notify Cindy Adams at (808) 956-8344 or [email protected] if you intend to travel outside the U.S. We ask that you provide us at least a two (2) week notice prior to travel so that we may ensure that you have the proper documentation to return to the U.S.
Nonimmigrant employees who have a pending “change of status” petition (i.e., change from F-1 to H-1B, etc.) with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) must remain in the U.S. until a determination on the petition is rendered. Whenever an individual with a pending “change of status” petition departs the U.S., USCIS will cancel the petition since they consider the beneficiary to have “abandoned” the request.
Please contact Cindy Adams at [email protected] or (808) 956-8344 if you have any questions.
STUDENT EMPLOYMENT
All RCUH Student Assistant employees are responsible for submitting a Student Verification each Semester in order to qualify for continued student employment. For all University of Hawaii students (eg: UH Manoa, UH Hilo, Honolulu Community College, Maui College, etc.), verification is not required, as RCUH has the ability to verify student status electronically through a UH database. However, verification is still needed for UH Outreach College and non-UH Schools (i.e. High School, Chaminade, HPU, etc).
The following are acceptable forms of student verification:
a) Student registration or receipt
b) Letter of student registration from the registrar or counselor
c) Validate student I.D. card
d) Any other form of verification deemed acceptable by the Director of Human Resources
Continuation of student employment:
Project/Student must submit Student Verification for the Fall 2013 semester by Tuesday, September 3, 2013. Failure to submit student verification by the indicated deadline will result in termination of student employment.
Please contact Sharon Vong at [email protected] or (808) 956-7307 if you have any questions.
