Application for Employer Reporting Internet Access
General Instructions–This form may be used by employers covered under the Railroad Retirement and Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Acts to add, modify, or terminate employee access to the Railroad Retirement Board’s (RRB)
Internet employer reporting site. You may request system access for one or more employees, and you may authorize
different levels of access for each employee. You may also request that an individual employee file online reports on
behalf of one or more subsidiary or affiliate employers. In each case, your employees must certify that they will adhere to
the RRB’s security guidelines, which include use of an authoritative electronic signature. The Security Guidelines are in
the Reporting Instructions to Employers, Part VIII, Chapter 8. The Reporting Instructions are at www.rrb.gov under
Employer Information.
To request new or modified system access, complete the entire form. To terminate an employee’s access, complete only
Sections A, B (1-4), C (1), and D.
Making representations on this form to gain unauthorized access to the RRB Employer Reporting System or
using an authorized access for fraudulent purposes is a violation of federal law punishable by fine,
imprisonment, or both.

Level of Access (Check the appropriate box. Mark only one box for each form.)
● Form BA-4 - Three levels of online access are available for Form BA-4. Level “R” restricts access to “read only.”
Separate update and supervisory approval steps may be established by restricting an employee to level “U” or
“update” access, as long as another employee is assigned level “A” or “approve” (update, approve, certify, and
submit) access. Level “A” access is also appropriate for any employee who independently updates, certifies, and
submits Form BA-4.
● Forms BA-6a and GL-129a - Level “A” is the only available option.
● Check the box marked “X” to prohibit online access to a particular form.
