Colorado who were adversely affected
by a shift in production to China.

Notice of Approval for Missouri for
Avoidance of 2006 Credit Reduction
Under the Federal Unemployment Tax
Act
Sections 3302(c)(2) and 3302(d)(3) of
the Federal Unemployment Tax Act
(FUTA) provide that employers in a
state that has an outstanding balance of
advances under Title XII of the Social
Security Act on January 1 of two or
more consecutive years are subject to a
reduction in credits otherwise available
against the FUTA tax for a calendar
year, if a balance of advances remains
on November 10 of that year. Because
the account of Missouri in the
Unemployment Trust Fund had a
balance of advances on January 1 of
2004, 2005, and 2006, and still had a
balance of advances on November 10,
2006, Missouri employers were
potentially liable for a reduction in their
FUTA offset credit for 2006.
Section 3302(g) of FUTA provides
that a state may avoid credit reduction
for a year by meeting certain criteria.
Missouri applied for avoidance of the
2006 credit reduction under this
section. Pursuant to delegation of
authority to me under Secretary’s Order
4–75, I have determined that Missouri
meets all of the criteria of section
3302(g) and thus qualifies for credit
reduction avoidance. Therefore,
Missouri employers will have no
reduction in FUTA offset credit for
calendar year 2006.
