UI Modernization - Employer Portal Project

Until the change to MyWisconsin ID this fall, continue to log in to your UI Employer Account using your existing username and password.

MyWisconsin ID is the State of Wisconsin's way to securely access state services using a single user ID and password.

All Wisconsin employers will need a MyWisconsin ID account to access the UI Employer Portal starting this fall! This means a MyWisconsin ID account will be required when filing future quarterly Tax & Wage Reports.

You can take steps now to be ready for the transition to MyWisconsin ID this fall:

1. Create your MyWisconsin ID at https://apps.wisconsin.gov using your work email address.

   • If you already have MyWisconsin ID for work, you do not need to create a new one.
   • You may already have a MyWisconsin ID for personal matters. If so, you will need to create a new MyWisconsin ID to manage work-related matters with the state.
   • Keep your work and personal matters separate—you may need to use MyWisconsin ID for personal matters while working or after leaving an employer.

2. Verify your email address.

   
   

3. Set up your multi-factor authentication method using a work device, when possible.

   • Use work phones, security keys, or authentication apps.

4. Keep track of your MyWisconsin ID login information. You will use it to access the UI Employer Portal when filing future Quarterly Tax & Wage Reports!

   • Use a strong, unique password. Your MyWisconsin ID account may have access to various state systems with sensitive information. Don’t use your MyWisconsin ID password elsewhere.

Create your MyWisconsin ID account today or learn more.

Keep track of your existing username and password and your MyWisconsin ID login information — you will need both to transfer your current UI employer account(s) to the new UI Employer Portal.

When you log in to the new UI Employer Portal later this year, you will use your existing username and password. Then, you'll follow steps to transfer access to your UI employer account(s) to the new UI Employer Portal. While transferring access, you will be required to log in to your MyWisconsin ID account (or sign up for one, if needed).

Your existing employer account access can only be converted to a single MyWisconsin ID.

Information about transferring your accounts as an Employer Service Provider is coming soon.
