FS 154 -Employer Electronic Payment Options

If employers wish to pay their tax payments as ACH Debits, the payments can be made via their MiUI account.

ACH Debit Transmissions

Employers who wish to pay their unemployment taxes through their MiUI account must verify
with their financial institution that they have the ability to authorize a debit from their bank account. Some financial institutions offer a service referred to as "Debit Blocking" to their customers to prevent unauthorized debits (withdrawals) from their accounts. If an employer has this service on their account, they must contact their financial institution and have ACH transactions identified with the company ID 9044030366, which authorizes UIA to debit the account. Failure to do this prior to making a payment through MiUI will result in UIA not being able to receive the electronic payment.

To add your financial institution to make payments, log into your MiUI account at Michigan.gov/UIA.

Bulk ACH Debit Payments

The Bulk Payment feature allows third-party administrators to authorize a single payment and submit a file indicating how the payment should be allocated for multiple employers through their MiUI account. Only TPAs who are directly authorized to file and pay on behalf of the employer can use this function. This function can also be used for reimbursement payments.

Refer to this TPA Bulk ACH Debit Payments Employer Reference Document for more information.

ACH Credit Payment Overview

The ACH Credit feature allows employers and TPAs to authorize payments to the UIA to pay unemployment quarterly taxes or reimbursements using both the National Automated Clearance House Association (NACHA) Cash Concentration & Disbursement (CCD)+ and Corporate Trade Exchange (CTX) standard formats. You must contact your bank in advance to notify them of your ACH transfer amount. Most banks require at least 24 hours lead time. Please contact your bank for specific deadlines.

UIA treats each employer account number as a separate entity for the purposes of processing ACH credit payments. Therefore, if you are submitting a payment for multiple UIA account numbers, a separate addenda record must be submitted for each account. Use the CTX format if you are submitting a payment with multiple addenda records.

Your bank will need the following information for the transaction:

State of Michigan (UIA) Information

• Bank Account Number: 270766842
• Bank Routing Number: 021409169

Tips to Ensure a Successful Transaction

• ACH credit payments must include a valid EAN number for payment to be processed. Enter your 7-digit EAN followed by 3 trailing zeros. Ex. 1234567000
• TPAs submitting ACH payments for employer(s) must be associated with the employer account and be assigned the Edit Tax Payments Update and Submit role.
• TPAs must also include a valid EAN and TPA ID for payment processing.
