What we'll cover

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 Alabama and Georgia, 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!

 

Department of Revenue

Third-Party Password (TPP) for the Alabama Department of Revenue

You're not required to establish a third-party password with the Alabama Department of Revenue. However, if you already have a third-party password, you will need to provide it to us.

If you're unsure whether or not you've established a password follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to your Profile settings once you're logged into your AL withholding account
  2. Click "Third Party Access"
  3. "Allow Third Party Access" should be set to Yes
  4. Default Access - Third Party
  5. Default account access - File & Pay
  6. Third Party Password > if a password is listed, email it to us at hello@onpay.com 

Third-Party Access (TPA) for the Alabama Department of Revenue

  1. Log into your MAT Account
  2. Navigate to Manage My Profile
  3. Select Other Actions...
  4. Click the Manage Third Party Access link
  5. If Allowed is set to "No" click Yes (If you've established a Third Party password, it will be displayed here)
  6. Default access: Third Party
  7. Default account: File & Pay
  8. Ensure that "Third-Party Log-ons Allowed/Change Third-Party Password" is set to Yes

 

Is "Third-Party Log-ons Allowed/Change Third-Party Password" set to "No"?

Note: If "Third-Party Log-ons Allowed/Change Third-Party Password" is not allowed, OnPay will be unable to securely access your account. To correct this, click the No hyperlink. You will then be directed to the Change Third-Party Access page, where you can:

    • Click the blue triangle beside "Would you like to enable others to access your accounts?", and select Yes.
    • Create a third-party password.

Password requirements:

  • 8-16 characters in length
  • Must contain one letter (ABCabc) and one number (123)

This password should be different than the password you use to access your MAT account. We will not need this password to access your account. We will access your account using your account number, E-File Sign-On ID, and the E-File Access Code you provide.
