Posted - The status after we process your payment and post it to our system.<br />

Rejected - The status if a payment does not clear bank processing.<br />

(It is possible for a payment to reach ‘Posted’ status and later change to a ‘Rejected’ status. This is due to the time delay<br />

in communications between the banks involved.<br />

Please verify that your payment has been withdrawn from your bank account before reducing the fund balance below an<br />

amount necessary to complete a premium payment or the payment may not complete. Do not rely on the ‘Posted’ status<br />

as a measure of a completed transaction).<br />

10 FAQS<br />

10.1 Registration:<br />

What will happen if my Federal <strong>Employer</strong> Identification Number (FEIN) is all zeros?<br />

If your FEIN is all zeros you will not be able to register for <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong>. You must update this information by contacting customer<br />

service.<br />

I entered my account number on the registration and the system gives me a<br />

message like “You have entered an incorrect value in the business name, account<br />

number, or Federal <strong>Employer</strong> Identification Number field”. How can I create an account<br />

if I can’t start the process?<br />

For security purposes CDLE needs to make sure only the right users are registering for <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong>. To ensure this we require<br />

that your business name, account number and FEIN are exactly as we have them on our system. If you received this error make sure<br />

the values you entered are correct. If you can look at one of the forms that CDLE mailed you make sure to enter the data as follows;<br />

Colorado Legal Business Name – Enter is exactly as printed on these forms, we sometimes abbreviate due to space limits. If there is<br />

a misspelling or other error, you should enter it that way (you can send a correction to CDLE later).<br />

Colorado Account Number – Enter the number from your form. Your account number is formatted 123456.00-7. If you have trailing<br />

numbers printed on the form, you must disregard those digits. Only enter the numbers which match the example and omit any<br />

additional numbers that follow.<br />

Federal <strong>Employer</strong> Identification Number – Enter your 9 digit FEIN.<br />

I have not received my PIN what do I do?<br />

You should return to the email that you received after the registration was initiated. There is a link within the text of the email that<br />

will cause our system to mail you a replacement PIN. You will need to wait up to 10 business days to receive the PIN after you have it<br />

resent.<br />

I deleted or cannot find the email I received after I registered, what do I do?<br />

You should return to the <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> main page, where the login is located, there is a link beneath the ‘Register’ button that<br />

contains the highlighted word ‘here’. Click on this link and complete the Resend <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> Registration Email screen that<br />

appears. This will resend the email to the original email entered. You may only use the original email that was entered at the initial<br />

registration until your registration is completed.<br />

I received an error message when trying to complete my registration stating that<br />

this account is already registered but when I try to log in it tells me that this account<br />

does not exist, why?<br />

The system has actually locked-out this account. You will need to begin registration again.<br />

I started a registration but I never received anything so I tried to register again,<br />

now it’s telling me that the account either already exists or something doesn’t match,<br />

why?<br />

Your registration is actually in a ‘pending’ status, that is, it is waiting for the registration to be completed by selecting the link<br />

contained in the registration email and completing the data requested.<br />

I am a Third Party Administrator, should I register the employers which I<br />

represent?<br />

<strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> was designed for the individual employers to set up their own accounts. It is possible for many Third Party<br />

Administrators to complete the steps required to register an employer, but, should you discontinue representing an employer the<br />

steps required to transfer ‘ownership’ of the account to the employer will be greater than if the employer had registered<br />

themselves.<br />

What happens when a Third Party Administrator or Leasing Company registers for<br />

an employer that they represent, and then their representation of the employer is<br />

terminated?<br />

<strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> is intended for employers to use and we advise that anyone other than the employer does not register an account<br />

for someone else. If this situation happens however, there are two methods of resolution; First the representative can just provide<br />

the username and password to the employer, who can then change the password. Second (if the representative is not cooperative) a<br />

staff member with the proper authorization can change the password for the employer. A username may not be changed once it has<br />

been created.<br />

Can there be more than one administrator on a <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> account?<br />

No, due to programming limitations there can be only one administrator per <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> account.<br />

10.2 Log In:<br />

How many users can log into a single account?<br />

Only one user may log into an account as a system administrator. There is no limit to how many other users an account may have.<br />

Also, all of these different users can be using the system at the same time.<br />

10.3 Payments:<br />

May I make a payment using a bank outside of the United States?<br />

Any bank that is used to make payments through <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> must have a U.S. routing number. Many foreign banks have U.S.<br />

routing numbers, so those banks would be acceptable, but any bank that does not have a U.S. routing number will not be allowed to<br />

make payments.<br />

I would like to change my bank account number, how do I do this?<br />

<strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> does not allow a previously entered bank account number to be modified. If you no longer want to use a specific<br />

bank account number which was entered into <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> it should be deleted. You would then need to add the new bank<br />

account number to begin using it.<br />

May I verify my payment I submitted online today went through?<br />

Currently there is not an immediate way for us to see if your payment has gone through. You will be able to see it when it gets<br />

applied to our system of record, which could take a few days depending on when the payment was made.<br />

Date: 11/12/2013 50/53


How long from when I submit payment online before it posts to your system?<br />

Unfortunately there is not a consistent and reliable answer to this. This will depend on what time of day you made your payment,<br />

the day it was made, if there are any bank holidays soon, and how quickly your bank communicates with our bank. A good estimated<br />

time is 3-5 business days.<br />

When does my online payment have to be submitted online in order to be<br />

considered timely?<br />

As long as the payment is submitted before 11:59 p.m. it is considered to be made on that date. For <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> the payment<br />

can be accepted on a Sunday or Holiday, and is not affected by postal service limitations.<br />

May I make a future payment?<br />

Currently you are unable to make a future payment. The system was only designed to take payment the day that it is submitted.<br />

Why am I receiving a billing statement if my payment went through on time?<br />

As long as the payment is submitted before 11:59 p.m. it is considered to be made on that date. However, there is a certain period<br />

where our system runs the billing statements. If the payment was not showing in our system (as it can take a few days to post)<br />

when the system ran, it automatically sent a billing notice. You may disregard that notice or contact customer service to ensure the<br />

payment was received timely.<br />

10.4 Other questions:<br />

What happens if the administrator of an employer leaves the business or dies?<br />

If no one at an employer’s business knows the username, password and security answers for an account and cannot log into the<br />

prior system administrator’s email then a staff member with the proper authorization can change the password for the employer<br />

and change the email address for the account. This will allow the new system administrator to receive the username reminder. Now<br />

they may log into the account. A username may not be changed once it has been created.<br />

Should I use my <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> password and username when I am logging in to<br />

the FTP site?<br />

No, although we link to the FTP site your <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> username and password will only work for the <strong>MyUI</strong><strong>Employer</strong> site.<br />

Continue to use the login information that you have been previously instructed to use to access the FTP site.<br />

Why can I only see information for a few years on <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong>?<br />

The <strong>MyUI</strong> <strong>Employer</strong> system displays employer information for the current year plus three prior years.<br />

How long from when I submit a report online before it posts to your system?<br />

Unfortunately there is not a consistent and reliable answer to this. This will depend on what time of day you made you submitted<br />

your report, the day it was made, if there are any bank holidays, and how quickly our systems link up. A good estimated time is 3-5<br />

business days.<br />
