Written AuthorizationsEmployers subject to the Texas Unemployment Compensation Act may appoint an agent, either an individual or service company, to represent them in all matters before the Commission. This appointment is granted by filing a Written Authorization (Form C-42) which explicitly authorizes the agent to act on the employer's behalf. The instrument granting the authority may be a properly completed TWC Written Authorization (Form C-42) or a facsimile of our form, with the grantor's notarized signature and the name of the agent appointed. If a durable power of attorney is submitted that authorizes the agent to perform real property transactions, for the form to be valid it must be recorded in the office of the County Clerk of the county in which the property is located. An authorized agent of an employing unit has access to all information in the Commission's records regarding that employer. If the employer wishes, they may direct the Commission to mail all correspondence and quarterly tax reports to their agent's address rather than the employer's address. Acting for the employer, the agent may submit all required reports and contributions under their own signature. Furthermore, the agent may participate in any claimant or tax administrative hearings conducted by TWC regarding the employer's account. A Written Authorization previously filed and approved by the Commission may be revoked at any time by the employer or his agent. Revocation requires that a Revocation of Written Authorization Form C-43 be filed. How can I obtain a form?
