TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are having trouble accessing the Former Employee Portal, review these common issues and resolutions.

Registration Invite

If you did not have a personal email listed in UCPath when your employment ended, you likely did not receive an invitation to register for the Former Employee Portal. You will need to contact the UCPath Center (UCPC) via phone at (855) 982-7284, 8am to 6pm (PT), Monday through Friday for assistance. If you are not able to get through via phone, you can email UCPC at ucpath@universityofcalifornia.edu, which will create a case.

Date of Birth

Your date of birth (DOB) format must be mm/dd/yyyy. The UCPath Center has reported that some users are entering mmddyyyy, resulting in locked accounts. Include forward slashes (/) when manually entering DOB or select the date from the calendar, which will automatically format it.

Stale Request

Clicking the browser back button from the Former Employee Portal login page may cause you to receive a “stale request.” To resolve this issue, return to the Former Employee Portal login page and re-start the login process.

Forgot Password/Security Question Answers

Contact the UCPath Center (UCPC) via phone at (855) 982-7284, 8am to 6pm (PT), Monday through Friday to unlock and reset your account. You will need to complete the registration process again.
