Minnesota Paid Leave Wage Reports Due October 31, 2024
Minnesota employers of all sizes will be required to submit their first employee wage reports to the state by October 31, 2024, as part of their obligations under the state’s Paid Leave law. Reports must include each employee’s:
Name
Social Security Number
Hours Worked
Wages Paid (for July 1, 2024, through September 30, 2024)
Employers must submit this information quarterly through the state’s Unemployment Insurance (UI) online system. Employers covered by the UI program will be able to submit a single wage detail file for both programs when they pay their UI taxes.
Employers not covered by UI are required to set up a “Paid Leave Only” account in the UI system. Paid Leave benefits will be available to employees starting January 1, 2026. Employers can begin taking payroll deductions on the same date, and must submit their first premiums to the state by April 30, 2026. For more information, see Minnesota’s Paid Leave employer website.
