d) The onus shall be on the teacher to file TD-1 forms upon commencement of employment and immediately upon any change in status.  In the absence of a filed TD-1 form, the teacher shall be paid at the single rate and retroactive payments shall not be applicable.  Where teachers have filed an inaccurate TD-1 report resulting in payment of the allowance at a rate higher than required, the teacher shall reimburse the Division for any over-payment.
