The Department of Labor (“DOL”) has announced that it will allow contractors to file VETS-100 and VETS-100A reports until November 30, 2011 because of technical problems it is experiencing with its electronic filing system. The DOL had planned to begin accepting electronic submissions of the VETS-100 reports on August 1, 2011, but, because of various technical issues, DOL will not have the electronic filing system ready until October 1, 2011.
Because of this glitch, DOL has indicated that it will extend the filing deadline until November 30, 2011 and will not take any enforcement actions against contractors who file on or before that date.
