Automate the Employer Portal with a workflow

A workflow runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

• EFC Profiles not yet complete, every account

  Build this

  Starts

  Every Monday at 8:00

  Step 1

  For each GDOL account number you name, list the employer-filed initial claims.

  Step 2

  Keep the employees with ID.me verified N or a profile status other than Complete.

  Step 3

  Email you the list by account, so you can send those employees the DOL-5198 instructions.

• Changed Employer Tax Rate Notices, sent to payroll

  Build this

  Starts

  Monthly on the 5th at 9:00

  Step 1

  For each GDOL account number, get the Employer Tax Rate Notice for the current year.

  Step 2

  Keep the accounts whose total tax rate changed since the last run.

  Step 3

  Post account number, rate period and the three rates to your payroll system's webhook.

• Quarterly filing check after each due date

  Build this

  Starts

  Monthly on the 2nd at 9:00

  Step 1

  For each GDOL account number, get the report and payment history for the latest quarter past its due date.

  Step 2

  Keep the accounts with no report filed date or no payment for that quarter.

  Step 3

  Email you the accounts that still need a Quarterly Tax and Wage Report or a payment.

You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month.

Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a method, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get the Employer Tax Rate Notice” would look like.

curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "www.dol.state.ga.us/get_tax_rate_notice",
    "input": {
      "account_number": "123456-78",
      "year": 2027
    }
  }'

{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "employer_name": "Acme Logistics LLC",
    "account_number": "123456-78",
    "rate_period": {
      "from": "2027-01-01",
      "through": "2027-12-31"
    },
    "contribution_rate": 1.24,
    "administrative_assessment": 0.06,
    "total_tax_rate": 1.3,
    "computation_status": "Regular",
    "computation_reason": "Annual Computation",
    "three_year_taxable_payroll": 2565000,
    "average_annual_payroll": 855000,
    "total_tax_reserve": 315550
  }
}

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

The Employer Portal’s own options

The Georgia Department of Labor offers no API for the Employer Portal. Quarterly Tax and Wage Reports are filed in the portal by direct entry or by uploading a CSV or Excel wage file, and large employers and payroll service providers can send reports over SFTP. Requests for separation information can be answered through SIDES or SIDES E-Response at no charge.

Signing in to the Employer Portal

You log in to the Employer Portal with a username and password and land on the User Account Information or Administrator Dashboard, where you pick an account under Registered Account. With Fous you sign in once through the portal's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256 and never returned by the API, and a method does only what your user privileges allow.

Worth knowing

Tax rate notices are no longer mailed

GDOL releases Employer UI Tax Rate Notices to the Employer Portal by December 31 each year, with the Voluntary Contribution letter. A voluntary contribution is due within 30 days, by certified check or money order.

An administrator decides what each user can do

A company first sets up an administrator with Establish Administrator Access. Users need privileges to file employer-filed claims, and a third-party service provider can be the administrator.

Employer-filed claims follow the week

Claims are filed only after the week ending date, for a Sunday to Saturday pay week, and for at most six consecutive weeks with no earnings. Each employee completes an EFC Profile and ID.me verification.

25 or more employees must file online

Employers with 25 or more workers must file and pay through the Employer Portal. Reports and payment are due April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31.
