New Jersey has released the new unemployment tax rates effective July 1, 2021. NJ tax rates are determined with schedule C where the minimum tax rate is 0.50% and the maximum tax rate is 5.80%. The new Employer rate remains at 2.80%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tax rates have increased from last year where the State used schedule B, and rates will continue to rise of the next two years as tables shift to schedule D and E respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The schedule is typically determined by the amount of reserves in the state fund, however the state has decided to gradually increase rates over three years, instead of jumping directly to schedule E. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
