A remote employee working in Michigan requires the client to register for Michigan unemployment insurance taxes, but the registration process has a circular dependency: the online portal requires an Employer Account Number to log in to retrieve the newly assigned UI number, which the client has not yet received.
The state's online registration system has a logical deadlock: you need the Employer Account Number to access the portal, but the portal is where you obtain the number after registration. There is no clear alternative method, such as mailed confirmation, phone support, or a separate status portal, to retrieve the number.
