This memo reiterates the advantages of using the allowance/salary additive plan for covering costs associated with the business use of cell phone/communication devices, and encourages employees to take advantage of this plan. The memo also clarifies the strict documentation requirements that employees assume when such devices are provided and paid for by the University. Adherence to these requirements has become even more critical in light of recent IRS audits at other institutions, which have resulted in tax assessments to both employers and employees.
