The application can still be submitted via email; it still works and they do accept it via email: providing that all the documents sent is correct.
The online site can be used, and it does work too.
If a company has not been submitting UI19's monthly to DoEL, then chances are 100% that they will not get this UIF payment - if a worker is not linked to their UIF number, then UIF will not pay out. Therefore you must first make sure all UI19's have been updated before you apply.

More pain coming up for me and my staff then. When I tried to submit the March UI19 return for one of my companies on uFiling, I got this error.
When I called the call centre as instructed, there was a recorded message that says the call centre is closed due to the lockdown. So I have emailed in the return, but I haven't got confirmation that the return has been processed yet.
Thinking about it. If only 136 of (let's use their lowest number as the actual total number of applications) 23 000 or so applications were valid, where does the fault probably lie?
The UIF system has been a dog's breakfast for years. Now the chickens are coming home to roost. Properly.
And it is going to be the employees who have contributed for years that are ultimately going to suffer in their moment of need.
Properly unamused.

Shoot. Just gone through the online process. Went smooth as silk.
Now we wait to see the results.
(My apologies to UIF in advance for having submitted via email and online and adding to the duplicate count issue, but you kinda brought that problem on yourself. My main concern is for my staff I have had to place on reduced hours...).

I have submitted the online TERS claim for one of my clients on Monday, 13th.... and today he has received a notification from his bank that an amount of R230.16 was paid into his account, UIF ref number as reference.... not sure what they want him to do with such a small amount.
He has received no schedule and no other notifications from them......

Blow me down with a feather - the money from UIF is in!
Now I just need something from UIF to tell me how it is made up so I can disburse it, but the MONEY is in the bank.

I also have no idea how it is made up. I even went to the effort and expense of registering with a newly opened email address for each client, because in the past UIF communicated without saying who they were addressing. Well those efforts have so far come to nothing.
Does anybody know with certainty how these amounts are arrived at?
So far I haven't found anything more specific on the sliding scale beyond "it ranges from 60% to 38%" ...
Let alone specifics on how UIF might be dealing with employees with partial payments during the period.
Quite simply, UIF is going to have to provide a schedule!
Or at least an online calculator (as a poor second choice)...
It is going to be a disaster otherwise.

You actually agree to that as a condition when you lodge the claim. But then, it is an SOE...Quite simply, UIF is going to have to provide a schedule!
