Texas TPA + Form C-42 needed

Updated September 12, 2023

What we'll cover

• Written Authorization to Represent Employing Unit 
• Form C-42 DocuSign
• Third-Party Access (TPA) for the Texas Workforce Commission

Why is this important?

OnPay works with government entities on your behalf, reporting new hires to state labor departments, calculating tax rates, paying taxes and insurance contributions, and filing financial reports. To do this effectively, you will need to grant us Power of Attorney for each state where your company has a tax obligation. For example, if you operate in both Texas and New Mexico, you must complete and return a power of attorney for both states.

We've got you covered. All you have to do is fill out your information, sign the form, and return it to us. We'll take it from there!
