We want to remind Minnesota employers that they are required to submit their quarterly wage detail reports were due on October 31, 2024, but to make things easier for employers, the Paid Leave division of the State of Minnesota’s Department of Employment and Economic Development, will use the existing Unemployment Insurance (UI) system to collect quarterly wage detail reports for Paid Leave. If all an employer’s employees are covered by UI, that employer will not need to take any new action – the employer’s existing UI account has already been converted to a joint UI and Paid Leave account, and their quarterly wage detail reports will now serve both UI and Paid Leave.
- For organizations whose employees are not covered by the Unemployment Insurance program, employers will need to set up a Paid Leave Only account through the UI online system.
- Employers can register for a Paid Leave Only account on the MN Unemployment Insurance Minnesota website
Submission Requirements:
- Deadline: October 31, 2024
- Reporting Period: July 1, 2024, to September 30, 2024
- Submission Method: Electronically through the Unemployment Insurance (UI) Online system
Report Details:
Employers must include the following information in their reports:
- Employee names
- Social Security numbers

- Paid hours worked
This information is essential for determining eligibility and benefit amounts for the Paid Leave program, which will commence in January 2026.
