Electronic Termination (eTerm) allows employers to report employee terminations online. Registered employers can provide information by uploading a file or entering information in the online eTerm application.
Employer:
- Provides notification that the person is no longer or was never employed by the employer.
- Receives an acknowledgment indicating whether the file was successfully uploaded to the Child Support Portal.
- Views report files, which are available for download for 60 days.
eTerm Application:
The eTerm application will notify the state of the termination in one of these ways:
- Through an e-IWO file if the state participates in the e-IWO application.
- Through an email to the state child support agency.
How Do Employers Register for eTerm?
- Registered Portal users: On the "Welcome to Employer Services" page, select the Report Termination button in the Services column.
- Non-Registered users: Register as a new user on the Child Support Portal to access employer applications, including eTerm.
