Instructions For Form De 6 - Quarterly Wage And Withholding Report

QUARTERLY WAGE AND WITHHOLDING REPORT (DE 6) REV. 5 (1-08)

PRINTING SPECIFICATIONS

COMPUTER OR LASER GENERATED ALTERNATE FORMS

The Employment Development Department (EDD) provides DE 6 forms suitable for laser

printers at no cost to our customers.

These specifications will assist you in creating an alternate (facsimile) DE 6 form that we can

image with our equipment. A sample alternate DE 6 and an original Quarterly Wage and

Withholding Report (DE 6) are included with these specifications. The sample alternate format

should not be used to align with your alternate format as reproduction has caused distortion.

Please use the print and line positions provided in these specifications to create your alternate

form. The DE 6 form is the correct template to use to verify that your alternate format is correct.

Place the DE 6 over or under your alternate format and visually verify that the data on your

alternate form is printing within the corresponding boxes on the DE 6. If this is the case, the

alternate format has been designed to meet our specifications.

ALL FORMS MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL BEFORE USE

Please submit a sample deck for testing and approval. The test deck should include 25 original

documents – no photocopies. You may use dummy data and repeat the data on all the pages.

However, we need the following specific items included in the test deck submitted:

• One page that has page totals, grand totals and all 7 wage items listed,

• One report with more than seven employees (2 or more pages) including grand totals and all

the optional fields (Voluntary Plan DI, No Payroll and Final Return).

The test deck should be mailed to the following address:
