Hi:

Thanks to those who responded to my questions both on here and directly to
me. I'm sorry for putting this question out again, but I was hoping I could
receive a few more responses in how each of you are handling dependent
tuition and how if affects your fringe benefit rates. For your review, I'm
copying my previous email. Thank you.

"My question is in regards to fringe benefit rates. As I understand
it, A21 f.(2) states that "tuition benefits for family members other
than the employee are unallowable........". My observations by
looking at other universities websites, are that some have 2 fringe
benefit rates (Federal vs. Non-Federal) and some do not. Should I
assume that if they do not have 2 rates, it is because their
university does not offer dependent tuition remission? My second
question is how do you begin to identify whether a dependent fee
belongs to a faculty/staff that will be charged to a grant? And
furthermore, to a Federal grant? We currently use Banner and I'm not
sure how we go about tracking this.

Any information on the matter of 2 rates would be beneficial to me as
I gather an understanding. Thanks."
