When it comes to reporting Occupation and Employer information on compliance reports, some states require specific formatting or terminology. These states are:
- Colorado
- Delaware
- Georgia
- Indiana
- Maine
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- New Mexico
- North Carolina*
We at ISP feel having a specific set of Occupations and Employers to choose from is not ideal, as there are many different ways to record an Occupation or Employer. Because of this, we have created back-end logic to help bridge the gap between the data we receive and what the agency requires. For example, titles like Attorney at Law will be converted to just Attorney.
*North Carolina has specific requirements related to employment status. For example, the state does not accept Retired as an Occupation. To help maintain compliance, ISP can automatically update records containing Retired to the state-approved values of no job title or profession for Occupation and “not employed” for Employer, where appropriate.
