COMPLETION INSTRUCTIONS FOR NOTICE OF REDUCED EARNINGS, DE 2063

This notice provides instructions on completing the Notice of Reduced Earnings, DE 2063.

A DE 2063 is prepared by you when a full-time employee becomes partially unemployed through no fault of

his/her own, and:

• The employee works less than normal full-time hours because of lack of work; and

• The employee’s normal weekly earnings are reduced by lack of work; and

• The employee’s gross earnings, after deducting the first $25 or 25 percent of the total earnings

(whichever is greater), are less than his/her weekly Unemployment Insurance benefit amount.

If you have a layoff and know that there will be no work for an employee for more than two weeks, or you

terminate an employee for any reason, do not issue a DE 2063. Instruct the employee to immediately contact

the Employment Development Department (EDD) at one of the toll-free telephone numbers listed on this form.
