Illinois State SUI Fix
Illinois State SUI
For some unfathomable reason Intuit removed the Illinois State option from the QuickBooks Payroll State SUI workbook template, build 1.23. They have offered no explanation for this move.
We researched this on the Illinois website, which shows no changes to the file format, and also contacted Illinois Department of Employment Security via telephone and spoke to a representative.
They indicated that:
1) Their file format for monthly wage reporting has not changed.
2) They have no plans to change it.
3) They know of no issues with QuickBooks-generated reporting files.
