BUSINESS REGISTRATION FORM (NJ-REG) INSTRUCTIONS 
 
The Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services (DORES) adopted this registration procedure to assist you in becoming aware of and understanding 
all of the taxes and related liabilities to which a new business or applicant for a license may be subject.  The procedure covers tax/employer registration 
for ALL types of businesses, and also covers the filing of NEW legal business entities such as domestic/foreign corporations or limited liability 
companies (Public Records Filing, pages 23-24). 
 
All businesses  must complete the registration application (NJ-REG, pages 17-19) in order to  receive the forms, returns, instructions, and other 
information needed to comply with New Jersey laws.  This applies to every individual, corporation, or other legal business entity, or unincorporated 
entity engaged in the conduct or practice of any trade, business, profession, or occupation, whether full time or part time, within the State of New 
Jersey.  Registration requirements also apply to name holder and dormant corporations, as well as to owners of tangible personal property used in a 
business located in New Jersey or leased to another business entity in New Jersey.  Nonprofit "501(c)(3)" or veterans' organizations that need sales 
tax exemption should complete an REG-1E application; see item “A" below for details.  Persons commencing business or opening additional 
places of business must register at least 15 business days prior to commencement or opening.  There is no fee for filing NJ-REG; however, as outlined 
in the instructions, there are fees for filing new business entities. 

                      Mail the completed     NJ-REG to:                                        Overnight Delivery      of NJ-REG to:

                                    PAPERLESS/ELECTRONIC FILING 
   
  Multiple opportunities are now available for businesses to file and pay their New Jersey tax and reporting obligations without paper.  These 
  methods are not only convenient but they also decrease potential filing errors, and in most cases provide immediate confirmation of the filing 
  and payment itself. 
                                                                                                                                                  
  As the State of New Jersey moves toward the elimination of paper filing, electronic filing mandates are being established.  In many cases, 
  filers of multiple returns who meet designated thresholds must file electronically.  The State now mandates that all new business registrants 
  use paperless filing and payment methods for selected tax returns and reports.  It is now mandatory to E-file Sales Tax as well as the 
  business’s annual report.  Please visit the Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services (DORES) website at www.nj.gov/treasury/revenue 
  to see the online options that are currently available. 
                                                            
                      ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER (EFT) PROGRAM 
   
  DORES has established procedures to receive payments, including most tax payments, electronically.  The New Jersey Electronic Funds 
  Transfer (EFT) program manages these payments.  Some businesses are required by statute to remit tax payments electronically.  If your 
  business meets these requirements, you will be notified by the Division of Revenue and sent all necessary information to enroll in the 
  program.  Voluntary participation is also encouraged. 
   
  The EFT Program offers convenient payment options for businesses using the ACH debit method of payment.  If you currently make 
  electronic tax payments via phone, the same taxpayer ID and PIN can be used if you choose the online payment option. 
   
  Online Convenience – Managing electronic transactions from a secure website offers a degree of control and flexibility that isn't available 
  when making payments by phone.  This highly productive online solution is easy to set up and use, and offers several benefits such as a 
  secure website, electronic confirmations, payment tracking, payment history, live phone support, screens that match phone options, and 
  availability from any location, anytime. 
   
  PC Software – This software runs on your desktop computer, and can be obtained free of charge by contacting the EFT Program.  This tool 
  is an ideal option for third party transactions, including payroll companies, tax preparers or accountants managing complex accounts with 
  multiple transactions.  This software is especially useful for companies making a large volume of electronic payment transactions.  Benefits 
  include management of complex multiple payments, electronic confirmations, payment tracking and review of payment history and live 
  phone support. 
   
  Interactive Voice – This technology maximizes phone productivity, and allows you to dial in without having to wait for an operator.  Benefits   
  include availability from any touch-tone phone, voice prompts, and easy to navigate structured options.                                         
   
  Get Started Today – To learn more about these options or to enroll in the EFT program, please visit the Division of Revenue's website at 
  www.nj.gov/treasury/revenue or call 609-292-9292.

                                           TAXPAYERS’ BILL OF RIGHTS 
   
  The New Jersey Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights simplifies tax administration and ensures that all taxpayers, individuals and businesses alike, 
  receive fair and equitable treatment and receive the information and  assistance  they need to understand and meet  their  State  tax 
  responsibilities.

                   NEW JERSEY NEW HIRE REPORTING DIRECTORY 
                                                            
On March 5, 1998, Governor Whitman signed into law the New Jersey Child Support Act, P.L. 1998, C.1.  The Act requires all New 
Jersey employers to report basic information about employees who are newly hired, rehired, or who return to work after a separation of 
employment.  This information will be used principally to help locate parents who owe child support.  It will also be used to identify 
recipients of public assistance and unemployment compensation who fail to report earnings. 
 
If you are interested in reviewing either P.L. 1998, C.1 or the regulations promulgated by the Department of Human Services to 
implement the provisions of the law, you may do so through the following sources: the law is available at the New Jersey State Law 
Library 609-292-6230 and the regulations were published in the New Jersey State Register on June 1, 1998 and are available at most 
public libraries. 
 
HOW IT WORKS 
 
New Hire information provided by employers will be compiled on a computer file and will be compared to the database of individuals 
who are required to pay child support.  When a “match” occurs, a notice is sent to the child support obligor’s employer, notifying the 
employer to withhold child support and remit the funds in accordance with the income withholding notice. 
 
The New Hire file is compared to databases of applicants and recipients of various compensation benefits.  Match information is used 
in determining if these individuals are reporting earnings as required.  This screening process will save taxpayers millions of dollars 
each year by preventing and detecting fraud. 
 
WHO REPORTS 
 
  All employers with business operations in New Jersey are required to submit New Hire Reports unless you are a multi-state 
       employer and have notified the federal government as required by P.L. 104-193. 
  Some payroll processing services automatically report newly-hired employees.  If you use a payroll processing service, ask if 
       they send reports on behalf of your organization. 
 
WHO MUST BE REPORTED 
 
  All newly hired employees who work in New Jersey must be reported.  If you are unsure whether an individual is an “employee” 
       consult New Jersey Law P.L. 1998, C.1. 
  Employees who are returning to the payroll after a lapse in employment and for whom a W-4 must be completed. 
 
WHEN TO SEND REPORTS 
 
  If reporting through electronic media, submit the new hire report within 15 days of the employee’s first day on the job. 
  If submitting by any other means, submit within 20 days of the employee’s first day on the job. 
 
  QUARTERLY WAGE REPORTS SUBMITTED TO THE NJ DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY, DIVISION OF REVENUE 
  AND ENTERPRISE SERVICES, DO NOT SATISFY THE OBLIGATION TO SUBMIT TIMELY NEW HIRE REPORTS 
 
WHAT TO REPORT 
 
  The employer’s Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN), including company name and address. 
  The employee’s Social Security number, name and address. 
  Employee’s date of birth, if available. 
  Employee’s date of hire, optional (currently reported by many payroll processing companies).

MULTI-STATE REPORTING BY EMPLOYERS 
 
Beginning October 1, 1997, an employer that has employees in two or more states and transmits reports electronically may report all 
new hires to one state if the employer does both of the following: 
 
1) Notifies the United States Secretary of Health & Human Services, in writing, of which state the employer has designated to receive 
   the report. 
2) Transmits the report to that state in compliance with federal and state law. 
    
If you are a multi-state employer and you elect to send New Hire reports to New Jersey, you must first notify the federal government of 
your request at the following address: 
                                            Department of Health and Human Services

                            The Child Support Program and Employers 
                                                            
The Child Support Program and Employers 
 
Employers play a vital role in helping to ensure the financial security of millions of our nation’s children by working cooperatively with 
the Child Support Enforcement Program. 
 
The Child Support Enforcement Program has been at work since 1975 when it was established by Congress under Title IV-D of the 
Social Security Act to collect child support payments for children in single-parent families.  Although it has expanded greatly since its 
inception, the program’s goals are still the same: 
     
    To ensure that children are financially supported by both parents 
     
    To reduce public assistance expenditures 
     
State and local programs provide five basic child support enforcement services: 
 
 1. Locating non-custodial parents 
 2. Establishing paternity (legal fatherhood) 
 3. Establishing child support and medical support orders 
 4. Collecting and distributing child and medical support 
 5. Enforcing child and medical support orders 
 
How Employers Are Helping 
 
The following are some ways that employers who comply with child support laws help their communities: 
 
    Deducting for child and medical support obligations: Nearly 60% of all monies collected on behalf of America’s children is 
    collected by employers through income withholding. 
     
    Saving taxpayers’ dollars: Child support collections reimburse public assistance spending and reduce costs for other social 
    programs such as Medicaid and food stamps because fewer children remain in poverty.  The Child Support Enforcement 
    Program reduces government spending on welfare by increasing child support collections for families who would otherwise be 
    forced to seek public assistance. 
     
    Prevent or reduce fraud: State agencies operating unemployment insurance and workers’ compensation programs use new hire 
    employment information to detect and prevent erroneous benefit payments and erroneous receipt of public assistance payments. 
 
Employers’ Responsibilities 
 
New Hire Reporting 
 
New hire reporting is the process by which you, as an employer, report information on your newly hired employees to a designated state 
agency shortly after the date of hire.  New hire reports are matched against child support records at the state and national levels to locate 
parents who are not paying child support.  This is especially helpful for interstate cases (in which one parent lives in a different state 
from his or her child), which are often the most difficult cases for states to resolve. 
 
With new hire reporting, state child support enforcement agencies have the ability to issue income withholding orders--the most effective 
means of collecting child support--much more quickly. 
 
The new hire report must include, at a minimum, the following information, found on a W-4 form: 
     
    Employee name, address, and Social Security number 
     
    Employer name, address, and Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) 
    (Some states may require or request additional data.) 
     
Employers have 20 days to report their new hires to the state.  (Some states have established more stringent reporting requirements.) 
     
If you are reporting your new hire reports electronically or by magnetic media, you must report twice a month (if necessary).

Multistate Employers’ New Hire Reporting Option 
 
Multistate employers, those with employees working in more than one state and that report electronically, may select one of the following 
reporting options: 
 
 1. Report each newly hired employee to the state in which he/she is working, following the new hire regulations, requirements, 
    and time frames of each state to which you report; or 
     
 2. Select one state where you have employees working and report all new hires to that state electronically. 
 
If you choose the second option (to report new hire data on all employees to only one state), you must notify the Secretary of the U.S.  
Department of Health and Human Services as to which state you have designated to receive all your new hire information.  For 
information on how to notify the Secretary: 
 
   Call the Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) Information Line: (202) 401-9267, 7:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. ET 
   Visit the OCSE employer website at https://ocsp.acf.hhs.gov/csp/home/employer.  
 
Income Withholding 
 
Income or wage withholding by employers is the most effective method of child support collection.  Income withholding is the court-or 
administrative agency-ordered deduction of child and medical support obligations from a parent’s income.  The employer deducts the 
specified amount each pay period and sends it to the agency responsible for receiving and accounting for child support. 
 
Direct income withholding allows one state to send an income withholding order to a non-custodial parent’s employer in another state.  
While income withholding for child support is not new for employers, receiving an order directly from another state may be new to you. 
 
Most states are now using a standard income withholding order developed by OCSE.  If the income withholding order appears “regular 
on its face” you must honor it and  
 
    Provide a copy of the order/notice to the employee immediately. 
     
    Begin income withholding and send the payments to the address cited in the withholding order/notice. 
     
    Continue to honor the withholding order/notice until you receive official notification from the child support enforcement 
    agency/court to stop or make a change to the withholding. 
 
Income withholding for child and medical support has priority over all other legal processes against income except for federal tax liens 
that were served before the child support order was served. 
 
Income withholding for child and medical support may not exceed the maximum amount allowed under the Consumer Credit Protection 
Act (CCPA) and similar state laws. 
 
Medical Support 
 
Medical support is a form of child support often provided as health care insurance under a parent’s policy.  If neither parent has health 
care insurance, the child support order may provide for a specific dollar amount to be deducted for medical purposes.  Employers are 
required to honor medical support orders established under state law.  A court or administrative agency may require your employee to 
provide health insurance for his/her dependents.  Courts require coverage if it is available to an employee at a “reasonable cost” defined 
as coverage available through the employer or other group health insurance (for example, a union). 
 
You may receive an order from the court or administrative agency to enroll an employee’s dependents in an insurance plan and withhold 
premiums from the employee’s wages.  This order may be in addition to an order to withhold a monetary child support obligation.

What Do I Need to Know about Medical Support? 
 
Employers and health insurance providers need to know that: 
 The dependent(s) must be enrolled in a family insurance plan without regard to seasonal restrictions (i.e., open enrollment). 
  
 The dependent(s) may not be denied coverage on the grounds that the parents were never married, that the dependent is not 
 claimed on the employee’s federal income tax return, or that the dependent does not reside with the employee or in the insurer’s 
 service area. 
  
 The employee may not eliminate coverage of the dependent unless the employee provides written proof that the order is no 
 longer in effect or that the dependent will be enrolled in a comparable health insurance plan elsewhere. 
 
New Features to Help Employers 
 
Centralized Collections 
 
As  of  October 1,  1999, each state child support enforcement agency is required to  have a centralized, computerized  unit  (State 
Disbursement Unit) for the collection and disbursement of child support.  Therefore, you may no longer have to send checks to multiple 
localities in a state. 
 
State Disbursement Units (SDUs) handle payments for all orders enforced by the child support enforcement agency, plus all private 
child support cases (non-IV-D cases) for which an order was issued on or after January 1, 1994, requiring income withholding as the 
method of payment. 
 
Some states require all payments to be sent to the SDU. 
 
Benefits of Centralized Collections 
 
 Reduced check processing cost 
  
 Reduced postage and handling cost 
  
 Opportunity to use electronic transmission of payments and payment information 
  
 Faster payments to children and families, resulting in fewer calls to employers and non-custodial parents 
 
Many state child support agencies now offer payment by Electronic Funds Transfer/Electronic Data Interchange (EFT/EDI), which 
enables employers to transmit child support income withholdings electronically.  All state child support agencies should be able to 
provide this service sometime in 1999. 
 
EFT electronically transfers dollars from one bank account to another.  EDI transfers information.  Employers can now use EFT/EDI to 
transfer child support payments and remittance information simultaneously to the centralized SDUs.  However, employers are not 
required to use EFT/EDI; it is optional. 
 
Benefits of EFT/EDI 
 
 Faster and more efficient than mailing paper checks and remittance information 
  
 Saves postage and administrative processing costs 
  
 Reduces the chances of errors like unidentified payments 
 
There is a specific format for EFT/EDI child support payments.  If you are interested in using EFT/EDI to submit income withholdings, 
contact the state child support agency to which you send income withholdings.

 Section 15 – Notice of Election for Suppliers and Permissive Suppliers 
    THIS NOTICE OF ELECTION PROVIDES FOR THE PRECOLLECTION OF THE NEW JERSEY MOTOR FUEL TAX ON ALL REMOVALS 
    FROM ALL OUT-OF-STATE TERMINALS LISTED ABOVE WHERE SUPPLIERS OR PERMISSIVE SUPPLIERS ARE POSITION HOLDERS. 
        We elect to treat all removals from all out-of-state terminals with a destination into New Jersey as shown on the terminal-issued shipping 
 papers as if the removals were removed across the rack by the supplier from a terminal in New Jersey as provided in Section 54:39-118. 
        We agree to precollect the New Jersey motor fuel tax in accordance with Chapter P.L 2010. C22 on all removals from a qualified terminal 
 where we are a position holder without regard to the license status of the person acquiring the fuel, the point of terms of the sale or the character 
 of delivery. 
        We further agree to waive any defense that the State of New Jersey lacks jurisdiction to require collection on all out-of-state sales by such 
 person as to which the person had knowledge that the shipments were destined for New Jersey and that New Jersey imposes the requirements 
 under  its general police powers to regulate the movement of motor fuels. 

 NOTICE OF ELECTION must be  signed by  an authorized representative  of the company  as  listed  in Section  5 of 
 this application.

 to our Suppliers by EFT no later than the 20thday of the month following the taxable event.
