Registration
No. TPAs and employers will need to complete a one-time activation process for a new MyUI Employer+ account. We will send you the information you need to complete account activation before the system goes live.
After the new system is live, users will not be able to access the old system.
No. Only employers can register their MyUI Employer+ account. To ensure account ownership integrity, TPAs and employers are required to have separate accounts.
Multi Factor Authentication is an extra layer of security for your account. After logging in, users will be presented with three options to receive temporary security codes: an authenticator app, text message, or email. Users are required to enroll in MFA in order to access MyUI Employer+ accounts.
If employers are receiving a 403 error when clicking the activation link from the activation email, please ensure they are not on a Virtual Private Network (VPN). MyUI Employer+ will not allow VPN users to access the system due to system security. We are also currently troubleshooting issues related to system calculated excess wage amounts for political subdivisions. We are working on a solution and ask that you try submitting your wage report beginning October 6th, 2023.
If employers have not received an activation email, their communication preference is mail. They will receive an account activation code the week of October 9th.
Account Management
The modernized system no longer requires some of the information contained in the old Employer Account Number (EAN) format. The new EAN format will have two-fewer digits, and no decimal. Ex: Account number 123456.12-1 would become 01234561.

More Frequently Asked Questions
TPAs will no longer be able to submit bulk paper filings after the launch of the new system. All correspondence to and from the UI Division will now be delivered electronically, according to state mandates.
Employers must apply for a non-electronic correspondence waiver to continue submitting paper filings. Waivers expire annually and must be renewed.
Waivers may be requested from Employer Services at 303-318-9100 (Denver metro) or 1-800-480-8299 (toll free).
The UI premium and wage reporting system has not changed in more than 40 years. Modernizing the system streamlines the way employers and TPAs conduct business with the UI Division.
TPAs experiencing issues with their MyUI Employer+ account, or have additional questions about the new system can submit a TPA help request form. Help request forms will be answered by division staff in the order they are received.
