1. a) A report submitted to the Department in the manner provided for in subsection (e), with the contents required by subsection (b), will satisfy the reporting requirement in Section 206.1(B)(4) of the Act for each month or calendar quarter, as applicable, ending on or after the date of the report's submission. The report will also satisfy the reporting requirements for the month or calendar quarter ending immediately prior to its submission when the employee leasing company's contract with the client took effect in that month or quarter and either:

   1. 1) the report is submitted within 30 days after the effective date of the contract; or

   2. 2) the last day of the month or quarter is a day on which the Department is closed and the report is submitted on the first succeeding day on which the Department is open.

      EXAMPLE: Employee Leasing Company A contracts with Client B to lease employees to Client B, effective July 1, 2001. Client B has a contribution rate of 1.0% for 2001. Employee Leasing Company A has a contribution rate of 4.0% for 2001, and its relationship with Client B meets the conditions set forth in Section 206.1(B)(1), (2) and (3) of the Act. Beginning with the report due for the third quarter of 2001, Employee Leasing Company A reports the leased employees on its wage reports and pays contributions on those wages at its contribution rate. Client B terminates its liability as of July 1, 2001 and stops filing any wage reports. However, the Employee Leasing Company does not report the leasing relationship to the Director until February 1, 2002. As a result, Employee Leasing Company A cannot report the workers in question for the third and fourth quarters of 2001 as its employees. The workers must be reported by Client B. Since timely wage reports were not filed, nor were contributions paid by Client B, penalties will be assessed and interest charged. Waiver of the penalty and interest can be granted only for the reasons set forth in 56 Ill. Adm. Code 2765. Employee Leasing Company A may amend its wage reports to remove the workers and then file for a refund or adjustment as provided in Section 2201 of the Act or request a transfer of contributions from the account of the employee leasing company to the account of the client pursuant to Section 2765.64.

   3. C) the client's unemployment insurance account number (if any); and

      1. D) the effective date of the employee leasing company's contract with the client.
   4. 2) The report shall be accompanied by either a power of attorney to represent the client or a certification by an officer or employee of the employee leasing company that the information contained in the report is true and correct to the best of the officer's or employee's knowledge.
3. c) Whenever the employee leasing relationship between an employee leasing company and its client is terminated, the employee leasing company must report the name of the client, the client's unemployment insurance account number (if any) and the effective date of the termination within 30 days after that date.
