Electronic Reporting
There are two ways employers can report new hires electronically.
Option #1
Manual Data-Entry: Employers with only a few new hires can manually enter new hire data into the website.
Option #2
File-Upload: Employers with many new hires and payroll providers can export their new hire information to a file that meets layout specifications. After a file has been created using the layout specifications, please contact the Georgia State Directory of New Hires at 888-541-0469 to arrange a "test" read of the data. We can then assist you in determining the most appropriate way to submit your file, including:
- Secure Web Upload through this website. Only available for registered employers and payroll service providers to securely transfer a file to us. You will receive a confirmation of receipt with this method.
- Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). Contact us for assistance.
- CD-ROM in IBM format mailed in a protective envelope to prevent damage during transit. CDs must be clearly labeled with the submitter's name, return address, Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN), and contact name with phone number. Please note, CDs are not returned.
