For filing to the Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing, and Regulation (DLLR), DAS produces:

  • A PDF copy of Form DLLR/DUI 15, Maryland Unemployment Insurance Quarterly Contribution Report, and Form DLLR/DUI 16, Maryland Unemployment Insurance Quarterly Employment Report, for record-keeping purposes.

  • A .txt file for e-file.

Note  All Quarterly Contribution Reports must be filed electronically.

Preparing the Report

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

  2. Make sure MD is selected, then select DLLR DUI 15 16 from the Forms droplist.

  3. Select the applicable quarter.

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

  5. Make sure the e-File checkbox is marked, then select Save/Print.

Save/Print creates a watermarked PDF copy of the form for record-keeping purposes only. If e-File was marked, a .txt file for upload to the Maryland Division of Unemployment Insurance website is also created.
