State Unemployment Insurance Worksheet

The State Unemployment Insurance Worksheet provides the information you need to fill out your State Unemployment Insurance ( SUI) report.

State Forms

The name of the form that you use to submit this information varies from state to state. However, they usually share two characteristics:

  • You file the reports quarterly.
  • The reports require you to calculate the employer’s quarterly SUI contribution based on taxable wages paid to each employee. The calculation uses the tax rate for employers in the state, and it is usually subject to a wage base.

Some states do not have an SUI form, so you may not need to print the State Unemployment Insurance Worksheet.

Summary

The summary section of the State Unemployment Insurance Worksheet displays quarter-to-date and year-to-date summary information. If you include information for the current accounting period in the report, the summary section also summarizes that information.

How To Use this Worksheet

Enter the information from the worksheet in the appropriate space on your state unemployment form:
