Tennessee Unemployment Tax Instructions
In 2005 the Tennessee SUTA tax is calculated on the first $7000 of wages for each employee. The
starting rate for a new business is 2.7%, except for those in construction or mining, which are charged a higher
rate. After three years the unemployment insurance tax rate is calculated from the employer's payroll history
and unemployment claims (2005 rates are from 0% to 10%).
To enter your Tennessee SUTA rate into the Goldenseal payroll software, follow these steps:

and choose Tax Items from the submenu.

method.
