Employer Application Options Message
When you click on the employee election checklist item, the system will display a message which advises that you can enter the employer information electronically or upload a paper application. Electronic applications get underwritten faster than paper uploads, require less data entry, and receive fewer pends because the information is validated before it is sent. The paper employer application forms are not necessary if you complete the electronic Employer Application.
