UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE PROGRAM LETTER No. 25-94
Unemployment Insurance Financial Data for Calendar Years 1990, 1991, and 1992
To transmit CY 1990 (revised), CY 1991 (revised) and CY 1992 Supplements to ET Handbook 394, Unemployment Insurance Financial Data and annual supplements.
Questions should be directed to the appropriate Regional Office.
Reference: ET Handbook 394, Unemployment Insurance Financial Data 1938-1982. Background: The attached tables contain selected unemployment insurance (UI) financial information for calendar years 1990 (revised), 1991 (revised), and 1992. These tables are a supplement and therefore comparable to those tables contained in the referenced handbook and described in its glossary. Selected data on the Federal-State extended benefits program and on employers on a reimbursable basis are shown separately. All employment and wage data used in these tables were furnished by State Employment Security Agencies (SESAs) and include estimates for some States. Note that columns 02-22 are for taxable employment only; columns 34-43 are for reimbursable employment only; and columns 44-52 contain Federal-State extended benefits information. Note that the source for the information shown in column 9, "Interest credited to trust fund" and column 11, "Reserves as of December 31" is different from the source described in the ET Handbook glossary. The information currently being published reflects data received from U.S. Department of the Treasury UI trust fund reports. These reports allow uniform reporting of year end balances and interest credited to trust fund accounts across States. Although the source of this information has changed, the difference between the sources is negligible, and the data remain comparable to previously published information. This change in definition will be reflected with the release of ET Handbook 394, Unemployment Insurance Financial Data 1938- 1993. Action Required: SESAs are requested to review the attached tables and report any corrections to the National Office by June 30, 1994 (Attention: Tom Stengle, TEURA).
