I\u2019ve read that the taxable wage base has increased in <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/2011\/02\/new-hampshire-announces-surcharge-to-remain-in-effect-for-2011\/\" target=\"_blank\">New Hampshire<\/a> for 2011, but I\u2019m not sure of the impact. What is a taxable wage base? Answer: The taxable wage base is the amount of income that will be taxed in a particular year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Hampshire Taxable Wage Base Is $12,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For 2011, the New Hampshire taxable wage base is $12,000. Therefore, all subject wages earned during 2011 by an employee up to $12,000 will be taxed for New Hampshire unemployment purposes. Once $12,000 of wages have been taxed for New Hampshire unemployment purposes, no additional New Hampshire unemployment tax will be due for that employee for the rest of 2011.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taxable Wage Bases Range from $7,000 to $37,300<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For 2011, the federal taxable wage base is $7,000. Three states, Arizona, California, Florida and Puerto Rico all have the lowest taxable wage base of $7,000. Washington has the highest taxable wage base at $37,300.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find Out the Wage Base for All States by Visiting the Vision Payroll Unemployment Taxable Wage Base Page<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Contact <a href=\"mailto:info@visionpayroll.com\" target=\"_blank\">Vision Payroll<\/a> if you have any further questions or visit our <a href=\"https:\/\/old.visionpayroll.com\/kb\/tutorials\/unemployment-taxable-wage-base\/\" target=\"_blank\">Unemployment Taxable Wage Base page<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Is a Taxable Wage Base?
