Unemployment Cost Management: Tax Consulting

What HRlogics' Tax Consulting Offers:

Benefits Rates Auditing

Every unemployment claim and hearing bears a direct influence on the annual unemployment tax rate assigned to your organization. As your third-party administrator (TPA), HRlogics receives every rate notice on your behalf, meticulously confirming the state's calculations, and appealing any error should any discrepancies come to light. Our tax consulting team won’t stop contacting the state agency until your credit is received.

Benefit Rate Projections

By analyzing validated data within our system, we offer clients rate projections for each State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) Account, complete with cost per employee.

Based on your preferences, we can tailor these projections, whether by business unit, SUI account, or common paymaster. These Rate Projections can assist your finance team with budget planning, especially if you anticipate changes in payroll or operations.

Voluntary Contributions / Joint Account Analysis

Currently, 26 states allow voluntary employer contributions to lower tax rates, and 13 states permit joint employer accounts for rate reduction. Our team analyzes each opportunity's impact and offers tailored recommendations for your tax strategy.

M&A Experience Transfers

When a merger or acquisition takes place, a transfer of the predecessor's experience may occur. Our experienced tax consulting team guides you through this process: providing clarity on whether the transfer is optional or mandatory, and consulting on potential advantages. 

Our team takes the responsibility of following up with each state until the transfer is successfully completed, ensuring compliance with state-specific requirements and saving you the headache and hassle.
