I read that <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/2010\/11\/michigan-futa-tax-credit-reduction-to-increase-for-2010\/\" target=\"_blank\">Michigan<\/a> is a credit reduction state for 2010. Are there any other credit reduction states for 2010? Answer: Federal law provides for a reduction in the FUTA tax credit when a state has outstanding federal loans for two years. The credit reduction is calculated on <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/f940sa-dft-20100909.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Schedule A<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/f940-dft-20100808.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Form 940<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>South Carolina and Michigan Are the Credit Reduction States for 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition to Michigan, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sces.org\/default.asp\" target=\"_blank\">South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce<\/a> has <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/FUTA_News_Release.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> that South Carolina is also a FUTA credit reduction state for 2010.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maximum Tax Increase Is $21 per Employee<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since this is South Carolina\u2019s first year as a credit reduction state, the credit reduction will be 0.3% or a maximum of $21 per employee. This is calculated by multiplying the wage base of $7,000 by the credit reduction of 0.3%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michigan, South Carolina and Indiana Are Credit Reduction States for 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As noted elsewhere and in the comments, the three credit reduction states for 2010 are <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/2010\/11\/michigan-futa-tax-credit-reduction-to-increase-for-2010\/\" target=\"_blank\">Michigan<\/a>, South Carolina, and <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/2010\/11\/indiana-is-a-credit-reduction-state-for-2010\/\" target=\"_blank\">Indiana<\/a>.
