unemployment insurance (UI) claims in New York and other states. Benefits paid through such claims are part of the safety net, and are financed with federal and state payroll taxes collected from employers. As detailed by the Office of the State Comptroller in a September 2021 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/files/reports/pdf/unemployment-insurance-trust-fund.pdf">report</a>, New York’s UI fund did not have sufficient funds to pay the surging claims, and began to borrow from the federal government starting in May 2020.</p> <p>While many states had to borrow from the federal government to support UI claims, New York is one of only seven states or territories with UI funds that continue to be in debt to the federal government, and the size of the outstanding loan balance—$8.1 billion—is second only to California. In May 2022, New York State paid $1.2 billion of its federal loan, but New York’s UI debt has remained stubbornly high despite steady employment gains and State tax rates that have already increased to maximum permissible levels. If New York’s outstanding balance is not fully repaid by November 10, 2022, interest costs will mount, as will the federal portion of employers’ 2022 tax bills. Absent any significant federal or State action, employer costs will continue to grow, potentially impeding the State’s employment recovery amid growing economic uncertainty.</p> <h3>The Federal Loan</h3> <p>Pandemic-related unemployment claims surged during the COVID-19 economic shutdown and reached unprecedented levels; as a result, New York has drawn advances from the federal Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) since May 2020 when its UI fund initially ran out of funds for paying benefits. The loan balance reached as high as $10.2 billion in March 2021, declined and then plateaued to an average $9.3 billion from September 2021 through April 2022. After a series of large repayments, the balance dropped to $8.1 billion by May 31, 2022, as shown in Figure 1.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-001" name="endnote-001-backlink" id="endnote-001-backlink">1</a></sup></p> <h4 class="text-align-center" style="color:#922734;margin-bottom:20px"><strong>FIGURE 1: New York’s Monthly UTF Loan Balance During the COVID⁠⁠-⁠19 Pandemic</strong></h4> <div id="divChart1"> <center> <div id="chart1" style="width:100%;min-height:500px"> </div> </center> </div> <p class="osc-footnotes" style="margin-top:-35px">Note: Balances are as of the last date of the month.</p> <p class="osc-footnotes">Sources: U.S. Department of Labor; U.S. Department of Treasury</p> <hr><p>Interest due on New York’s advance has been limited to date because of federal pandemic legislation waiving such payments. The Families First Coronavirus Response Act first waived interest accrued on loans through December 2020. This date was extended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act/Continued Assistance Act and the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act and the waiver ultimately lasted through September 6, 2021. Interest due from New York for the remainder of federal fiscal year (FFY) 2021 (which ran through September 30, 2021) totaled $13.5 million.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-002" name="endnote-002-backlink" id="endnote-002-backlink">2</a></sup> Payment of this interest was largely deferred, with only $3.4 million paid.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-003" name="endnote-003-backlink" id="endnote-003-backlink">3</a> </sup>As of May 31, New York has accrued $113.4 million in interest due in FFY 2022 and will also pay an additional $3.4 million for interest accrued during 2021, for a total of $116.8 million in interest for FFY 2022.</p> <h3>Balance Remains High Despite Recovery and Increased UI Tax Collections</h3> <p>New York’s ability to repay the federal loan is directly tied to the strength of its economic recovery and the tax rates levied on employers. State UI tax rates vary based on employers’ payroll, UI benefits paid to former employees and the size of the State UI fund balance. Collections of UI taxes are deposited to the State’s fund for the payment of benefits. Although unemployment decreased dramatically in 2021, total benefit payments remained greater than total UI tax collections, contributing to the persistently high balance in New York’s outstanding loan.</p> <h4><em>Fewer Unemployed Individuals, Claims and Benefits Paid</em></h4> <p>Over the last year, improved employment in New York State has resulted in fewer unemployed individuals, UI claims and accompanying benefit payments. Since April 2020, New York State has added over 1.5 million jobs, recovering over 77 percent of jobs lost.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-004" name="endnote-004-backlink" id="endnote-004-backlink">4</a></sup> After reaching a high of 16.5 percent in May 2020, the State unemployment rate has declined steadily to 4.5 percent in April 2022.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-005" name="endnote-005-backlink" id="endnote-005-backlink">5</a></sup> UI claims in New York have decreased significantly in tandem with falling unemployment. In the first quarter of 2020, unemployed individuals totaled 403,000 and $829.4 million in regular UI benefits were paid. These numbers increased dramatically in the next quarter to 1.4 million unemployed individuals (a 248 percent rise) and $6.5 billion in benefit payments (682 percent). These high levels fell significantly by the end of 2020 and throughout 2021. In the first quarter of 2021, there were 850,000 unemployed individuals, decreasing to 505,000 in the fourth quarter, with commensurate benefits paid declining from $1.54 billion to $643 million. Moreover, first payments declined from more than 1.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 to 88,437 by the fourth quarter of 2021.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-006" name="endnote-006-backlink" id="endnote-006-backlink">6</a></sup></p> <h4><em>Greater UI Tax Collections</em></h4> <p>State UI tax rates increased in 2021 from the prior year; combined with employment growth, these increases have bolstered tax collections by more than 54 percent from $2.1 billion in 2020 to $3.2 billion in 2021. These revenues are used to fund benefit payments and pay down outstanding balances.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-007" name="endnote-007-backlink" id="endnote-007-backlink">7</a></sup></p> <p>As shown in Figure 2, even though regular UI benefit payments decreased by almost $10 billion in 2021 and tax collections increased by more than $1.1 billion, total benefit payments remained greater than total tax collections, at $4.4 billion compared to $3.2 billion. As a result, New York’s UI fund continues to draw loans from the federal UTF. In 2021, the size of these loans decreased by almost two-thirds and repayments increased more than tenfold compared to 2020.<sup><a target="_blank" href="https://www.osc.state.ny.us/reports/update-new-yorks-unemployment-insurance-trust-fund-challenges-continue#endnote-008" name="endnote-008-backlink" id="endnote-008-backlink">8</a></sup> Nevertheless, repayments have not yet been sufficient to significantly address the high level of borrowing required in 2020 and the State UI fund continues to draw advances in 2022.</p> <p>New York’s large repayments in May 2022, however, indicate greater movement towards paying down its current advance. If the overall trend of decreasing UI benefit payments continues, or such payments remain at recent levels, and UI tax collections continue to increase (even with typical quarterly variation), New York will be able to continue taking fewer advances and making larger repayments.</p> <h4 class="text-align-center" style="color:#922734;margin-bottom:20px"><strong>FIGURE 2: New York’s UI Experience

In Maryland, legislation passed in October 2021 required Governor Larry Hogan to deposit sufficient federal ARP Act relief funds into the state’s UI trust fund towards lowering employers’ tax rates in 2022 and 2023. The appropriation was also available for repayment of Maryland’s outstanding loan with the federal UTF. In November 2021, legislation was enacted in Texas to use approximately $7.2 billion of its $15.8 billion allocation of federal fiscal recovery funds to retire the state’s outstanding loan ($5.9 billion) and replenish its UI fund for paying benefits. More recently, Minnesota governor Tim Walz signed legislation on April 29, 2022 to use $2.7 billion to both repay the State’s outstanding advance with the federal UTF and replenish its UI fund.
