   Enter your contact information

   • Complete all mandatory fields:
     • Street Address 1
     • City
     • State
     • Postal Code
     • Primary Business Contact Phone Number
       
       
   • When asked "The business I am registering is a", select Employer with Connecticut-based employees as the type of business you are registering.
     
     • Since you are registering your own business, skip the checkbox I am a tax accountant or TPA registering on behalf of this business.
     • NOTE: If you are a tax accountant or third-party administrator (TPA) registering on behalf of an employer, select Employer with Connecticut-based employees. Then, check the box I am a tax accountant or TPA registering on behalf of this business and complete the registration using your client employer’s information. (***This can only be done if you have already registered your own business as a Tax Accountant or Third Party Payroll Company).
     • If your business structure is Sole-Proprietorship, but you have employees who receive a W-2, you should still select Employer with Connecticut-based employees. To opt-in as a sole-proprietor yourself, you will also need to complete a Sole-Proprietor registration.
   • Select the Role/Title from the available options.
   • Confirm the information entered is correct and click Next.

   

   Save and finish later

   At any time when completing the account registration form, you have the option to select save and finish later. When ready to resume your account registration, SIGN IN, and select "Resume Business Registrations" from the drop-down menu. Your saved registration forms will be available for you to resume and complete.

   Connect your CT.gov account with a business

     • If the business has not been registered with CT Paid Leave, you will be prompted to enter information about the business.
     • If the business has already been registered, an onscreen message will appear stating the date and the name of the person who completed the registration. You will need to contact the person who registered the business and ask them to add you as a contact on the account. Provide them with the email address you used to create your CT.gov account so they can use that same email address when adding you.
   • Confirm the information entered is correct and click Next.
