| RATETABLE | Mandatory Enter the rate table: 'A','B','C','D', or 'E' |
| TOTALALLOWANCES | Optional Enter the total number of allowances |
NJ – ER SUTA, EE SUI#
ER SUTA may be bypassed on IPUTR with ‘Do not Calculate’ or IPRLU ‘SUI ER Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’.There are two options to set up the ER SUTA and EE SUI rates by state:
- IPUTR
- The SUI Rate and Wage Base are supplied and will be used as default
- This SUI Rate or Wage Base may be overridden if necessary
- IDGV
The EE SUI rate provided by Symmetry includes the Unemployment Insurance rate and the Workforce Development Partnership (WF) / Supplemental Workforce (SWF) rate.
ER SUTA may be bypassed on IPUTR with ‘Do not Calculate’ or IPRLU ‘SUI ER Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’, or IPRLU‘SUI EE Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’
For SUI, the IPUTR SUI built-in rate and SUI wage base may by overridden by one of the options above.
It is recommended that if the SUI rate is overridden, the SUI overridden wage base should also be entered. This is to ensure that with the overridden SUI rate, the SUI is able to stop at the proper maximum wage base with the new rate.
NJ – ER SDI, EE SDI#
ER SDI and EE SDI Rates and Wage Bases are provided by the government and stored on IPUTR.The Rates and Wage Base may be overridden on IPUTR for State of New Jersey
Specific overridden Rate and Wage Base may be entered on IDGV by ‘Reg Type’ = ‘US SDI Regist n’ and ‘Govt Rate Type’ = ‘US SDI ER Rate’ or ‘US SDI EE Rate’
SDI ER or SDI EE may be bypassed on IPUTR with ‘Do not Calculate’ at the State level, or on IPRLU ‘SDI ER Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’, or IPRLU ‘SDI EE Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’ at the Employee level.
The NJ SDI ER Rate can be varied by Employer, the SDI ER Rate MUST be entered on the ‘Override Tax Rate’ field, otherwise SDI ER will not be calculated.
