Iowa Admin. Code r. 871-23.11 - Identification of workers covered by the Iowa employment security law
(1) Each employer shall obtain the social
security number of each of its employees subject to the Iowa employment
security law.
(2) An employer shall
report the worker's social security number in making any report required by the
department with respect to the worker.
(3) If a worker failed to report to the
employer a correct social security number or fails to show the employer a
receipt issued by an office of the social security board acknowledging that the
worker has filed an application for an account number, the employer shall
inform the worker that Regulation 106 of the Internal Revenue Service, United
States Treasury Department, under the United States Federal Insurance
Contributions Act provides that:
a. Each
worker shall report to every employer for whom the worker is engaged in
employment a social security number with the worker's name exactly as shown on
the social security card issued to the worker by the social security
board.
b. Each worker who has not
secured a social security number shall file an application for a social
security account number on Form SS-5 of the Treasury Department, Internal
Revenue Service. The application shall be filed on or before the seventh day
after the date on which the worker first performs employment for wages, except
that the application shall be filed on or before the date the worker leaves
employment if such date precedes such seventh day.
c. If, within 14 days after the date on which
the worker first performs employment for wages for the employer , or on the day
on which the worker leaves the employ of the employer , whichever is the
earlier, the worker does not have a social security account number, and has not
shown the employer a receipt issued to the worker by an office of the social
security board acknowledging that the worker has filed an application for an
account number, the worker shall furnish the employer an application on Form
SS-5, completely filled in and signed by the worker. If a copy of Form SS-5 is
not available, the worker shall furnish the employer a written statement,
signed by the worker, of the date of the statement, the worker's full name,
present address, date and place of birth, father's full name, mother's full
name before marriage, and worker's sex, and a statement as to whether the
worker had previously filed an application on Form SS-5 and, if so, the date
and place of such filing. Furnishing the employer with an executed Form SS-5,
or statement in lieu thereof, does not relieve the worker of the obligation to
make an application on Form SS-5 as required in paragraph
23.11(3)"b."
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 96.7.
