Each year, your state will notify you of the rate you must use in the new year to calculate your unemployment tax liability. Because this rate differs by employer, it is not updated by installing tax table updates and must be updated manually. Follow the instructions below to manually update your unemployment tax rate.

Note: The wage base for unemployment taxes is updated by installing tax table updates and does not need to be manually updated.

  2. Select the appropriate employer and click Edit.
  3. Select the Taxes tab.
