Mailing Address
Tax: Mailings such as quarterly contribution and wage reports, benefit charge statements, annual tax rate notifications, and tax liability determinations are sent to the employer’s principal mailing address. Multiple mailing addresses may be established if an employer is filing separate reports for multiple locations.

Benefit Claims: The Notice to Base Period Employer of Claim Filed for Unemployment Benefits is sent to the employer's principal mailing address, unless a separate address is established for the mailing of unemployment insurance claim notices. To request a separate claims address, please contact the DES in writing by mail, fax, or e-mail (see above). Notice to last employer is mailed to whatever address is provided by the claimant. Determinations will be mailed to the address shown on the employer protest, unless the employer specifies the determination be sent to another address.
