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 New York and New Jersey, you must keep payroll tax information up-to-date for each (and every) state where you pay employees.
What you'll need
- New York UI Employer Registration Number
- New York Unemployment Insurance tax rate (without Reemployment Service Fund rate)
Where to find your SUI tax information
Refer to the most recent Notice of Unemployment Insurance Rate you received from the New York Department of Labor.
- Your UI Employer Registration Number is listed in the upper right of your notice
- Your New York SUI rate is listed in the box labelled "Your Rate", found in the upper right of your notice, and is the sum of your "Normal Rate" plus your "Subsidiary Rate".
- Note: Your "Re-employment Service Fund" rate is not included in this total, and should not be included when entering your SUI rate into OnPay
Where to enter your rate in OnPay
Go to Company, then Payroll Taxes.
Do you pay employees in multiple states?
If so, select New York under "Payroll Taxes".
Enter the information provided in your tax notice. Use the Update button to enter your New York SUI rate. Do not include your RSF rate.
When setting your rate, use the pop-up calendar to select the effective date, as indicated in your notice. Then, enter the rate as a percent and click Save when you're done.
