  • Did you file your report early?  Recently, we had a systems upgrade which affected the availability of our electronic reporting services.  In order to avoid delays during the normal weekend reporting periods, affected clients were given the opportunity to complete their report early. If you are one of these clients, you must advise us if, after reporting early, you worked, received other monies, were not available for work, or became sick during the remainder of the period normally covered by your report. If this is the case, once the reporting period has ended, please call 1 800 206-7218 during business hours, and press 0 to speak with an agent.
