State Information Data Exchange System

The State Information Data Exchange System (SIDES) is a secure and timely way for employers and third-party administrators (TPAs) to electronically receive and respond to a Notice of Unemployment Insurance Claim Filed (DE 1101CZ) (PDF).

The EDD sends a Notice of Unemployment Insurance Claim Filed (DE 1101CZ) to employers when a claimant files a new Unemployment Insurance (UI) claim or when an existing UI claim is reopened. We rely on employers to provide timely separation information to help determine claimant eligibility for benefits and to accurately charge your UI reserve account.
