Beginning with the December 2012 quarter, all employers will see a decrease in their unemployment tax rates, as the first 0.5% Emergency Power surcharge under RSA 282-A:84 was removed. The second 0.5% surcharge will remain in effect through at least the September 2013 quarter. In addition to the change in tax rates, the Taxable Wage Base increased to $14,000 effective 1/1/2012.
New Employer rates for the 2013-1, 2013-2 and 2013-3 quarters will be 3.2% (includes 0.5% surcharge).
