For OnPay to effectively calculate state tax contributions, you'll need to ensure the tax rates entered in Onpay are correct for each state where your company has a tax obligations. For example, if you operate in both Massachusetts and Connecticut, you must keep payroll tax information up-to-date for each (and every) state where you pay employees.
What you'll need
- Your Massachusetts Account Number
- Your Massachusetts SUI Rate
- Your Massachusetts WTFP Rate
- Your Massachusetts EMAC Rate
Where to find your SUI tax information
Refer to the most recent notice of Contribution Rates for Private Employers you received from the Massachusetts Department of Unemployment Assistance.
- Your DUA Account Number can be found in the upper right of page 1 and page 3
- Your SUI Rate is listed after "Unemployment Insurance (UI) Contribution Rate" on page 3
- Your WTFP Rate is listed after "Workforce Training Fund Program Rate" on page 3
- Your EMAC Rate is listed after "Employer Medical Assistance Contribution Rate" on page 3
Where to enter your rate in OnPay
Go to Company, then Payroll Taxes.
Do you pay employees in multiple states?
If so, select Massachusetts under "Payroll Taxes".
Use the Update buttons to update your Massachusetts SUI, Workforce Training Fund, and EMAC rates separately.
In the pop-up calendar above "Choose Effective Date" indicated in the upper right of your notice (below account number), then enter your rate as a percent in the next field.
Click Save when you're done.
Choose your Effective Date and Workforce Training Fund Rate from the menus, and click Save.
