Wage Reporting on the Internet

There are two options to report your Quarterly Wage Reports via the Internet.

  1. Tax Report with Employee Wage Entry: If you have less than 150 employees you can key your quarterly wage and tax report data directly into our website. This is a form fill application which displays the Social Security numbers and names of each employee reported on your last quarterly report. To complete your report, you simply type in the quarterly wage for each employee listed, update employee names or Social Security Numbers that need correcting, and add on your new employees. When you finish entering the wage detail you can click Calculate Total Wages and Next and the Tax Report will be calculated for you. Or you can Save and Exit and the wage report will be saved for you to complete later.

     
  2. Tax Report with Wage File Upload: This option allows you to key your tax report on-line, and then upload your wage report file. Your wage report upload file must be formatted in one of our three data formats. After completing the tax report, a menu appears that allows you to upload your Wage file(s). Click on Upload the employer wage file and provide the business contact information requested. Then click on Browse at the bottom of the screen in order to browse your PC for the file you wish to upload. When you have located and attached the file you wish to upload, click on Submit. If the file upload is successful, a confirmation message displays that includes a unique confirmation number for your records. You may upload more than one file, but you can upload only one file at a time. You can upload a maximum of 3 files during a login session with a maximum file size of 1 megabyte.

A third option is also available which allows you to complete your tax report online via the Internet and continue to submit your wage report via diskette or CD-ROM.

Two payment options are available. You can print a Payment Coupon and mail it in with your check or money order. or you can make a payment via Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT). If you have other questions on how to pay your quarterly UI Taxes, please call 608-261-6700 for more information.

When you access the Quarterly Tax and Wage Reporting System for the first time, you will be asked to create a new user profile. Once you establish your profile, you can use the same user name and password for all future quarterly filings. After your profile is set up, you will be asked to provide your UI Account Number and Internet Access Number.

The access number appears on your Quarterly Contribution Report (UCT-101). It is required the first time you use the Quarterly Tax and Wage Reporting System to submit your quarterly report. After that, access to your account is controlled by the user profile and password that you create. For this reason, please take every reasonable precaution to keep them confidential.
