Forms
Postdoctoral scholar administration is completely done online via PeopleSoft except when requesting exceptions where paper forms and additional documentation are typically required. Other Forms may be required by Stanford in order to complete the onboarding of a postdoc successfully such as the I-9 and Tax Related Forms. Departments Administrators should consult with Payroll via a HelpSU ticket or check the information on Stanford’s Fingate.
