Type of Coverage (ToC) Code (IMTQ-TYPE-COV(1))

The type of coverage code for the current quarter (an extension of what was once the BLS "reimbursable code") is a 1-byte field at position 708. The possible values are:

  • 0 = Experience-rated taxable account
  • 1 = Reimbursable account
  • 2 = Experience-rated account with employee contributions3
  • 3 = Reimbursable account with employee contributions
  • 8 = Non-subject (non-covered) account
  • 9 = Federal government account


If the type of coverage code is unknown, or if no change is enacted, it should be set to low-values. New accounts without type-of-coverage specification will be set to a default value of '0', except for Federal accounts, which will be set to '9'. States that use employee contributions will use a '2' default in place of the '0' coverage type.


3 Employee contributions are a very rare occurrence. No States are currently known to utilize employee contributions; therefore, a type-coverage code of ‘2’ or ‘3’, though valid, should be thoroughly confirmed.
