Any individual with a paid or unpaid appointment processed in EPAWeb is issued a PID as part of the New Employment action. Once issued in EPAWeb, the PID is active immediately and an Onyen may also be activated using the ITS Onyen Services web page. UNC One Cards for all of these individuals may be obtained by the person visiting the UNC One Card Office.
To obtain a PID and UNC One Card for any individual not covered under the above circumstances, such as a contractor or other affiliated individual, a letter requesting same should be sent by the Department Chair, Center Director, or other appropriate administrative official on UNC letterhead to: PID Administrator, Daniels Building, CB 1530. The following information must be included in your letter:
- Full name (last, first, middle) of individual for whom PID/One Card is request
- Department number
- Expiration date for the account
- Reason for activation request and whether or not an onyen is needed
- Description of services needed
- PID# (if it is an activation request for an existing PID)
- Date of Birth

*Note: the SSN is requested for University record keeping purposes and to prevent the issuance of duplicate PIDs to the same individual. Submission is voluntary for the individual and if the individual chooses not to provide their SSN or does not presently have a U.S. SSN, please indicate this in the request letter. As long as all other required information is provided, the creation of a PID can still be accomplished.
