New Hire Reporting by State.

Federal law requires new hire reporting. Several states require it faster than federal.

The topic.

The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) requires employers to report every new hire to a state agency within 20 days. But several states move faster — Georgia requires 10 days, Maine requires 7, Vermont requires 10. This reference covers every state's deadline, the correct agency, required data elements, acceptable submission methods, and penalties for non-compliance. It also flags states that require additional data like date of birth or health insurance availability.
