State Information Data Exchange (SIDES) E-Response

 

The State Information Data Exchange (SIDES) E-Response is a website developed through a partnership between the US Department of Labor and state unemployment insurance agencies to provide a nationally-standardized format in which employers can easily respond to UI Requests for Separation Information. It provides a secure, electronic format that performs a comprehensive check of the information entered to ensure that it is complete before it is submitted. When a response is submitted, E-Response provides a confirmation number for your records.

The Maryland Division of Unemployment Insurance is providing SIDES E-Response to Maryland employers as an alternate method to our "Request for Separation Information - Online Form for Employers."

To respond to the Request for Separation Information through SIDES E-Response you will need the following information:

  • Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN)
  • Maryland State Employer Account Number
  • Identification number/Access code - use Internet Key as provided on the Request for Separation Information form
