VT | QWR | New Specs Updates

Updated the VT Quarterly Wage Report (QWR) as per the new specifications.

  • Key changes:

    • Load Page Changes

      • Updated the VT QWR load page labels, related to Business change, etc., for clarity and alignment with VDOL requirements.

    • Employer Setup Changes

      • Added a new Employer Setup field labeled Current Tax Rate % (supports two decimals), used to calculate the unemployment contribution due.

    • Report / Report Menu Changes

      • Hidden the VT QWR sub-menus that are no longer needed: Pre-edit, VDOL Response, Addendum, and Wage Report Lite.

      • Decoupled VDOL validation from the VT QWR process to reduce dependency on VDOL responses.

      • Removed the taxable/reimbursable option from the VT QWR electronic reporting, where it previously appeared.

      • Electronic file format changes, especially for the C type record, have been implemented per the new specifications.

      • Removed the VT QWR PDF summary line that previously displayed the unemployment contribution due based on legacy logic.

  • Actions required: For VT employers using VT QWR, enter and maintain the Current Tax Rate % value in the Employer Setup so unemployment contribution due is calculated correctly, and reload the data through the Load Page.

Changes apply only to VT QWR processing and do not alter other state wage reports; historical VT QWR filings remain unchanged.
