Hi guys. Anyone had more luck with the new ufiilng site? So i updated my domestics declaration. She started with me Oct 2016 and all payments have been received and paid as per the payment page. I had to pay the Nov 2016 UIF contribution again but that is neither here nor there for me. After paying Nov 2016 and refreshing the declarations, the declarations page now shows a declaration for April 2014 highlighted in red. It wont let me submit it and it shows nothing is due and owing. I have not received any declaration for March and April 2019 and this is what needs to be paid. But no return has been generated as in the past and i dont know what to do. Ufiling does not answer the phone nor respond to emails. This is so frustrating.

I received this message from Debbie this morning (unprompted I must add, which impresses me some) -

There have been fixes done and a new build deployment going in shortly, once this is done we will have feedback on all your queries.

My suggestion for now then is - hold on for this new build deployment before doing anything radical. Let's see what gets fixed first.

Had the same problem with new UIF site
Got a contact to assist me at UIF but she just answer email will investigate
Manage to correct one UIF submissions for one i am doing , but took 6 hours and mostly over weekend , had to load every month returns for both employees and got all in submission state and was able to submit April
With other uif ref i am doing experience a problem when employees resigned and than you cannot proceed and get message one employee missing
If you got employees earning the same salary for the year you only have to load one line for year info from march to feb

Sounds promising

For the March and April 2019 returns you must load it yourself in the mean time and any other missing ones
Go declarations manager, next to employee line click on view and edit and than click on add employment info and than load all data salary , hours and months from and to and save
You can load for one full year from march to feb

I think the red button indicates that something is wrong with that period, maybe missing declarations. Try looking at the employee and see if there are declarations for that period that is red

That red indicates that there are declarations missing for that period, try adding them using Add employment info

Hi Guys. This new site is terrible. I have paid all my employees returns, bar March and April when Ufiling updated it site. Now it says i have issues for March and April but there are no returns generated so i cant pay or resolve those issues. I had to insert my employees details from scratch. The call center does not answer calls. I have been listening to their classical music for a total of 2 hours and no one replies to emails. Anyone know how to sort this out so that there is a return generated and i can pay? Thanks.

There use to be a problem with Payment history but I think they have sorted the issue, my payments reflect now, have you checked recently?

Does not work and so called ufiling specialist cannot even help you , refer to technical team or escalate your query
Must be the worst change over ever and even when you referred to senior staff , not able to sort query or get your returns in submission status even if you declared all returns up to date after wasting hours of your time after hours when site not overloaded
No wonder nobody wants to answer phone in call center
Only option to pay monthly contributions manual and send ui19 , waste of time and money sending email and fax
seems like nobody wants to admit failure at Dept of Labour

If only they would tell a person how to do it rather that what to do ...

If only they would tell a person how to do it rather that what to do ...

Procedure Click on declarations and then click on pay icon and you will get screen where all declarations are listing and if not paid highlighted and you can process manual payment or make online payment

Hi, I have a quick question on this. I've also spent a long time trying to sort it out, and thought I had it but it wasn't to be - not yet!

When you add a new declaration, for the period of time, say 201903, being March 2019, would you also put this in the 'to' box, as well as the 'from' one, so that this particular period is just March 2019, rather than March 2019 to say April 2019, being 201904?

I had several months in on one declaration but have deleted this. What I've found is that when I go into the page which lets you edit or delete the declaration, the contribution amount is incorrect each time. So I retype the employee wage amount, tab forward and this auto-corrects the contribution amount to the correct sum. Then I save and it tells me this has been saved correctly. But if I go back into it again, it's gone back to the incorrect amount again!

I was able to make one payment yesterday and thought I was making progress, but it seems to be one step forward, two back!

I will have another look today, but anyone with any guidance regarding the specific time period to be put in, would be gratefully received!

Thanks
