For filing to the Alabama Department of Labor (DOL), DAS produces:

• A .txt file for upload to the Alabama eGov website.

• A PDF of Form UC-CR-4/4A, Quarterly Contribution Report for record-keeping purposes only.

To prepare the UC-CR-4/4A:

• Select the Employees or On the Fly menu, then select State Tax & Wage Forms.

• Make sure AL is selected, then select UC-CR4 UC-CR4A from the Forms droplist.

• Select the applicable quarter.

• Review the form and make any necessary entries or edits.

• Make sure the e-file checkbox is marked, then select Save/Print.

Save/Print creates the watermarked PDF of Form UC-CR-4/4A for record-keeping purposes, as well as the .txt file for upload to the Alabama DOL.

To e-file:

• Log in to the Alabama DOL eGov account.

• Follow the menu options to upload the wage file.
