Employment and industrial accident insurance: deadline to report the end of coverage

14 days from the date coverage endsdays from the date coverage ends

Recorded apart from the health insurance deadline even though both are 14 days, because the two clocks start from different events. Health insurance runs from the withdrawal event; this one runs from the date the insurance relationship itself is extinguished, which is determined by when the business actually ceased rather than by the date on the closure filing.

Employers whose insurance relationship ends because the business closed or operations ceased

What we have recorded

    14 days from the date coverage ends

    Employment insurance and industrial accident insurance are collected together and their coverage ends together on closure. Filing does not close the account: the final premium is reconciled against wages actually paid, so a further assessment or a refund can arrive after the report is accepted.

One reading so far. This becomes a history the first time the figure moves while we are watching — which is the part that cannot be reconstructed later.
