Description:
 |
Unclaimed Property audits are on the rise, and are a hot topic for states since there is no statute of limitations and audits have historically resulted in large assessments.
To make matters worse, failure to comply with state regulations could now result in audit assessments, significant interest accumulations, and criminal penalties. And organizations with corporate headquarters in one state and employees in other states could be liable for penalties in all states that they have employees.
Many times, non-compliance is simply a matter of the company not being aware of their reporting responsibilities. But that doesn’t stop the huge fines and penalties for failing to report unclaimed wages.
Learning Objectives:
This audio conference will give you the necessary training to help your organization stay in compliance and avoid unwanted fines and penalties. By attending, you will learn:- When are wages considered unclaimed / abandoned
- What is payroll’s responsibility relating to abandoned wages
- The Escheatment rules in general and then as they pertain to the payroll department
- What are your requirements in notifying the employee that they have an un-cashed check?
- How long do you hold the check before it is escheated to the state?
- Which state are you required to escheat to?
- How to set up a system to handle unclaimed payroll checks routinely to avoid a costly audit
- How to establish proper procedures for tracking unclaimed wages correspondence

| About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts: |
Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.
The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form a training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!
And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.
Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions. |
