Reporting wages – UI vs. Paid Leave

Reporting wages paid to religious organization workers

There are certain situations in which religious organization workers are covered by Paid Leave, but not UI.

  • If you have employees who are covered by UI and Paid Leave, report them using your Joint UI/Paid Leave account. 
  • If you have employees who are covered only by Paid Leave, report them using your Paid Leave-ONLY account.
