What is SUI Tax Rate?
SUI or the State Unemployment Insurance Tax is levied by the State and the rate depends upon where your company is based. It is only paid by the employers (unless the State specifies that the workers need to contribute too). Since this is not a part of your tax table, it the rate needs to be updated in the QuickBooks Payroll system.
The State changes these SUI rates now and then, for a variety of reasons. The rate, a surcharge or any other assessment items can be changed by the State at any time, and this requires to be updated immediately in the QuickBooks software to accommodate correct calculations. It is easy to change or update the QuickBooks software as per the SUI requirements. Call in the QuickBooks technical support assistance regarding the same.
