Arizona law requires all employers to report new hires and rehired employees to the Arizona New Hire Reporting Center. This requirement applies to businesses of all sizes and covers full-time, part-time, temporary, and seasonal workers.
Employers must submit the completed form within 20 days of the employee's date of hire. Multistate employers who report electronically may submit twice monthly with no more than 16 days between reports to meet this deadline.
All Arizona employers are required to report new hires and rehires. This includes workers hired for the first time as well as employees who were previously on staff but had a gap in employment. Independent contractors are generally not subject to new hire reporting requirements under state law.
The form collects employer and employee data needed for state tracking:
Completed forms may be submitted to the Arizona New Hire Reporting Center by mail or by toll-free fax. Employers can also report online through the state's designated portal. The reporting center provides support and answers questions about the filing process.
Reporting data is used by the state to locate non-custodial parents for child support enforcement, detect unemployment insurance fraud, and verify eligibility for public benefits. Employers who fail to report new hires may face civil penalties of up to $25 per employee not reported. Willful violations or conspiracies to avoid reporting can result in penalties of $500 per incident.
If your business operates in multiple states, you may need to file separate reports in each state. You can find forms for other states including the Arkansas New Hire Reporting Form, the Florida New Hire Form, the Maryland New Hire Form, and the Minnesota New Hire Reporting Form on our site.
