UIF Notice – Manual UI-19 form discontinued

UIF Notice – Manual UI-19 form discontinued

The Unemployment Insurance Fund has made available an undated notice that states that from 1 October 2022, all Gauteng Labour Centers will no longer accept manual UI-19 forms (usually for the purposes of claiming the UIF benefit).

The notice also includes the three steps to assist employers to register for uFiling (from the uFiling System User Guide). The user guide can be found on the uFiling website (www.ufiling.co.za).

 

It is assumed (since the notice does not expressly state it) that the UIF notice is to notify all employers who are not registered for uFiling, to register as soon as possible (or at least prior to wanting to modify or update employee information) as the manual UI-19 form will no longer be available.
