What is the penalty if I do not complete the Fair Share Contribution Filing by November 15th?
The law governing the FSC program requires DUA to assess penalties on employers who fail to pay required contributions timely. By regulation the penalty is set at 12% per annum on unpaid contribution amounts. Continued failure of the employer to file and/or pay the required contribution may result in legal enforcement actions by DUA, such as receipt of a court judgment against the employer. Typical legal collection methods include bank levies and property liens to employers who persist in non-payment, and/or fail to meet the requirements of a payment plan agreement with DUA.
