The UIA is expanding its MiUI Seminar schedule to offer more support as employers and Third-Party Administrators (TPAs) transition to the new system.
In addition to weekly sessions, UIA is now offering daily morning seminars at 10 am focused on account activation.
These new daily sessions focus on helping employers and TPAs initiate their MiUI accounts. Presenters will walk participants through obtaining the MiUI Activation Code and completing required setup steps. This daily format provides flexibility for organizations that need quick assistance getting started in the new system.
The UIA will also continue offering its weekly seminar designed to help employers prepare quarterly wage reports and submit payments through MiUI.
If you haven’t tested your quarterly wage report file formats yet—and still need to file your report before the April 27 deadline — or if you simply want a quick refresher, the resources below can help ensure a smooth submission.
