Please review all benefit charges carefully. Benefit charges may affect your unemployment tax rate at a later date. Benefit charge protests must be made within thirty days of the date of notice on your charge statement. Submit a charge protest.

 

To apply for an Unemployment Insurance Account Number, complete the online Employer Status Report Registration form and applicable Contribution & Wage Reports. If you’re liable for unemployment taxes, we’ll mail your assigned employer account number and tax liability and tell you the amount due based on your assigned rate and taxable wages reported.

 

Are you an existing liable employer? If so, you need to establish a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to perform online transactions such as:

• Filing quarterly Contribution & Wage Reports, including file transfers
• Amending previously filed Contribution & Wage Reports
• Changing an employer’s account

South Carolina Automated Tax System, an online service, provides a helpful way to determine your tax liability.

Access online services: DEW Login.

 

In accordance with Section 41-35-110 of the South Carolina Code claimants can be held ineligible for failing to maintain weekly contact with temporary agencies. Temporary agencies can notify our agency electronically of a claimant’s failure to maintain weekly contact by clicking here.

 

File UCB-114 for short-term layoffs. For more information about filing Employer Filed Claims/UCB114’s please click here. Employers may file UCB-114 when a worker has performed no services because of lack of work or worked all available hours but less than his customary full-time hours and earned less than normal full-time wages because of lack of work during a claim week (seven-day period ending on Saturday).

 

We do our best to improve customer services. That’s why we developed a form that lets you easily provide employee separation information over the Internet. Using this service involves two steps:

1. Employer Registration
2. Form Completion/Submission

Employer Registration
Complete the Employer Online Registration form to use our online forms. Identify your company, its trading name, your DEW account number, point of contact, and telephone number. Once we receive your information, we’ll issue you a permanent registration number. Keep it where you can easily find it for reference and when submitting additional separation documentation. Questions? Contact the Benefit Division at 803.737.0684 or email jtrobinson@dew.sc.gov.

Form Completion and Submittal
Complete a new Employer Online Response form each time you respond to a request for separation information. Include the claimant’s name and Social Security number. Select the reason the claimant no longer works for you. Is the reason “Other?” If so, use the associated field to explain in detail the reason for separation. You must respond within 10 days of the date we sent you the “Request for Separation Information” form.

Note: If a complete response requires supporting documentation such as copies of warnings, violated company policy, or a letter of resignation, attach the supporting documents. If you cannot email attachments, mail your feedback and attachments via the Postal Service or other delivery service (UPS, FedEx, etc.) to the address on the NET-101. You can also fax them to the number indicated on the NET-101.

Once you’ve sent your form, email the appropriate local office in the address portion of the NET-101 form’s upper right portion of the reply we sent. If you have received a UCB-101, the local office address should be on the form’s bottom.
