Most Common Format or Data Errors:

Listed below are areas where most format or data errors occur: 

Employee Name:
Do not enter punctuation in the name field except for a hyphen in a compound surname. 

Employer Account Number Fields:
We require two types of employer identification numbers: 1) your Federal Identification Number and 2) your Nevada State Unemployment Insurance (UI) Account Number. Please ensure that you are entering the correct account number in the appropriate records and locations. Examples of how these numbers are to be formatted are as follows: 

·         Do not enter the hyphen when entering your nine-digit Federal Identification Number. A Federal Identification Number of 88-1234567 must be entered as 881234567. 

·         Do not enter the decimal, hyphen, or check digit when entering your Nevada State UI Account Number. An employer number appearing on the pre-printed quarterly report as 0123456.00-7, must be entered as 012345600, utilizing the nine positions available for the Nevada State UI Account Number. The account number field must be right justified; left zero filled.  

Record Delimiters:
Carriage Return (CR) followed by Line Feed (LF) are required following the last character of each record (position 513).

Wage Adjustments:
Negative wages are not acceptable. Wage adjustments must be made to the quarter in which the wages were originally reported by completing a Statement to Correct (form RPT7833)

Wage and Tip Fields:
Use numeric only and do not enter punctuation. Include both the dollars and cents with the decimal point assumed. Do not round to the nearest dollar. Right justify and zero fill to the left. These fields must contain zeros if not applicable.  

Reporting Period:
Be sure that the correct month and year are used each reporting period. 

Non-registered Nevada Employer:
Do not enter employer accounts that have not been assigned a Nevada State UI Account Number. 

No Payroll Reporting:
If you have paid no wages during a calendar quarter, you are still required to submit an Employer's Quarterly Contribution and Wage Report. To submit a no payroll report, indicate "Y" for no workers/no wages on the RS32SUMM record in location 128. 

Proper Field Justification:
Please ensure that you use proper justification for each field as follows: 

A/N = Alpha/numeric, left justified, blank filled
A = Alpha, left justified, blank filled    
N = Numeric, right justified, zero filled, unsigned
