ILLINOIS UNEMPLOYMENT

dkurtzke
Level 2

We have identified yet another serious EasyAcct payroll defect. For Illinois first quarter unemployment reporting, the system calculates the unemployment contribution correctly on the earnings report. However, when the UC-3 wage report is printed, the contribution due changes to what appears to be a random percentage, producing a grossly overstated tax in the thousands of dollars. This is not a data-entry issue, as the internal earnings report reflects the correct computation. The error appears to occur in the program’s UC-3 report logic or form generation. Because of this defect, we cannot rely on EasyAcct to prepare accurate Illinois unemployment filings, and this creates unnecessary risk, extra verification time, and possible filing delays for our office and our clients.

I have been putting the Illinois unemployment data in manually due to the fact it takes longer to import and download the files then to enter manually.
