Message from Ohio Department of Job and Family Services on Identity Theft Unemployment Update

We know that unemployment fraud has been a challenge for employers nationwide. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services appreciates your efforts to report it to us, so we can stop payment and take other needed actions. This week, we updated the information for employers on our website to clarify the steps employers should follow if they or their employees are affected.
We recognize that reporting suspected fraud through both Step One and Step Two of the update may be an inconvenience, but both steps are necessary to reduce the likelihood that fraudulent claims will be paid.
As a reminder, you can access the online reporting portal, identity theft resources, and frequently asked questions and answers at unemployment.ohio.gov, by clicking on the red “Report Identity Theft” button.

Thank you again for your time and cooperation.

Sincerely,
Office of Unemployment Insurance Operations
Ohio Department of Job and Family Services
