Reporting Fraud – ID Theft
The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is encouraging Texans to use extreme caution on social media amid a dramatic increase in identity theft. Although no TWC system has been compromised, a record number of identity theft cases shows just how important it is to be vigilant in securing private information.
TWC recommends using our secure online portal to report any suspected ID theft related to unemployment benefit claims.
Go to UI Fraud Submission
However if you cannot use the online portal, please call the TWC Fraud Hotline at 800-252-3642.
3rd Quarter 2021
Verify Worker Social Security Numbers
Go to: https://www.ssa.gov/employer/ssnv.htm
Employers Should Verify Names and SSNs Online because:
Correct names and SSNs on wage reports are the keys to the successful processing of your quarterly tax report submissions and calculation of taxes due.
Verification will prevent the need to make tax report corrections.
Correct worker information will prevent investigations when former employees file for Unemployment Benefits.
4th Quarter 2021

- Update business phone numbers;
- Update personal profiles – including email addresses and security questions; and
- Close accounts.
