We wanted to give the heads up that in February 2018 we’re looking to implement a checklist and reminder process to support Monthly Data Collection (MDC).  This will help us to ensure we receive the submissions in full and on time, by tracking the MDC files and identifying those that are late or missing.

A reminder email will be sent along with a checklist (which will be available within your Download a File section of the Employer Portal) which will contain a list of those members we’ve not received service and salary details for within the last MDC submission made. This checklist can be updated and uploaded back to the Employer Portal, advising of any missing service or whether the member has left your employment.

To ensure we’ve developed the process accordingly and to test that it meets all the necessary requirements, we’re running a pilot for 2 months with approximately 40 employers. Feedback received from the pilot will help to shape the final checklist and reminder process.

You’ll receive an email from us to advise you when the MDC checklist and reminder process has gone live and we’ll keep you updated through the bulletin.
