Section R994-311-103 - Effective Period of Payments by Contributions or Reimbursement
(1) Initial Election

A governmental unit or Indian tribe electing to become a reimbursable employer must make a written election within 30 days after the organization becomes subject to the Act. Under Subsection 35A-4-311(1)(e) the Department may, for good cause, extend the 30 day period within which the election is made. This initial election remains in effect for at least one full calendar year.

(2) Subsequent Elections

A governmental unit or Indian tribe may elect to change from the contributions to the reimbursement method or from the reimbursement method to the contributions method. To be consistent with the principle of Subsection 35A-4-311(1)(d), changes from one method to the other will remain in effect for at least two calendar years. Any election to change from one method of payment to the other must be made in writing no later than 30 days prior to January 1 of the year for which the change is requested. Under Subsection 35A-4-311(1)(e) the Department may for good cause waive the 30 day period within which a change from one method to the other is requested. As provided by Subsection 35A-4-311(3), the Department may terminate the reimbursement status if the governmental unit or Indian tribe is delinquent in filing Form 794, Insured Employment and Wage Report, Form 3H Employer's Quarterly Wage List, making the reimbursement payments, or paying any other amounts due.
