Unemployment Insurance Audits
Businesses that conduct Unemployment Insurance Audits save roughly $200 million in SUI tax costs annually!
Our audit process determines whether the correct figures were reported by both the state and the client on all official correspondence. If errors are determined, we will notify the client of any potential underpayments and/or risks with the particular reporting, or pursue (until check is received) any overpayment or refunds resulting from state errors.
