NOTICE TO ALL BAND MEMBERS:

I just got a call from Lorraine T., DHR Administrative Assitant. ALL
NAVAJO NATION BAND MEMBERS.......after every PAID rehearsals or
performances you are to fill-out your OWN claim with YOUR correct
information. This past weekends performance in Tuba City, AZ; there
were a few members that had change in last name and changes in address.
******NEED I REMIND YOU THAT YOU DO NEED TO FILL OUT A W-9 FORM
ANYTIME THERE IS ANY CHANGES IN YOUR NAME OR ADDRESS******

ALSO, NNB CHECKS ARE PRINTED ONLY ON TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS AND ARE
READY FOR PICK UP BY 4:30 PM FROM DHR. I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN YOUR
CHECK DOES COME OUT. ONE THING I AM STRESSING TO ALL NNB MEMBERS, GIVE
AT LEAST THREE TO FIVE DAYS FOR PROCESSING OUR CLAIMS AND ENTERING IT
INTO THE DATABASE FOR PAYOUT, AGAIN I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN CHECKS
ARE READY!!!!! THIS WILL ELIMINATE NUMEROUS CALLS TO DHR.

THE TURN AROUND PROCESSING TIME WHEN DHR TURNS OUR CLAIMS FORMS INTO
ACCOUNTING IS THREE TO FIVE DAYS. YOU SHOULD NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE BUT
MYSELF OR LORRAINE.

SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT THIS ISSUE PLEASE FEEL
FREE TO CONTACT ME AT (928) 871-7194 OR 6375/6599, or MY PERSONAL CELL
PHONE (480) 221-2145. THANK YOU

MUSICALL YOURS,
