The Office of Sponsored Funds Personnel is located in Room 326 of the Management Services Center at 2 University Place, which is adjacent to the University Administration Building at 1215 Western Avenue.

Extra service is compensation to full-time professional employees for work beyond that which is normally required by their professional obligation.  Full-time Research Foundation and SUNY professional employees may be compensated by means of extra service as long as all of the following criteria are met and can be properly documented.

• The work performed is different from or in addition to the person’s professional obligation,
• The work performed is outside of regularly scheduled hours and extra service is actually rendered,
• The work is across departmental lines or involves a separate or remote operating location,
• The extra service is specifically provided for in the agreement or approved in writing by the sponsoring agency,
• The payment conforms to and is properly authorized under SUNY and Research Foundation  policy, and
• The employment complies with RF position titles and standards, as well as federal and state laws and regulations regarding tax information.

In accordance with federal guidelines and SUNY regulations, compensation for extra service must not exceed an amount equal to 20 percent of regular base salary rate in any academic year or 12-month period.  All university and sponsor approvals must be obtained prior to any commitments or work being performed.

To request an extra service appointment for a Research Foundation employee, you will need to complete an RF Extra Service Form along with an Employee Appointment Form.

To request an extra service appointment for a SUNY employee, you will need to complete a UP-8 Extra Service Form, along with an Employee Appointment Form.
