Sec. 4.5. (a) This section applies to a calendar year that begins after December 31, 2010, to an employer:
(1) that is subject to this article for wages paid during the calendar year;
(2) whose contribution rate for the calendar year was determined under this chapter, IC 22-4-11, IC 22-4-11.5, or IC 22-4-37-3; and
(3) that:
(A) has been subject to this article during the preceding thirty-six (36) consecutive calendar months; and
(B) has had a payroll in each of the three (3) preceding twelve (12) month periods;
if, during the calendar year, the state is required to pay interest on the advances made to the state from the federal unemployment account in the federal unemployment trust fund under 42 U.S.C. 1321.
(b) In addition to the contributions determined under this chapter, IC 22-4-11, IC 22-4-11.5, or IC 22-4-37-3 for calendar year 2011, each employer shall pay an unemployment insurance surcharge that is equal to thirteen percent (13%) of the employer's contribution determined under this chapter, IC 22-4-11, IC 22-4-11.5, or IC 22-4-37-3 for the calendar year.
(c) For a calendar year that begins after December 31, 2011, in which employers are required to pay the unemployment insurance surcharge described in subsection (b), the department shall determine, not later than January 31, the surcharge percentage for that year based on factors that include:
(1) the interest rate charged the state for the year determined under 42 U.S.C. 1322(b); and
(2) the state's outstanding loan balance to the federal unemployment account on January 1 of the year.
(d) The unemployment insurance surcharge described in subsection (b) is payable to the department quarterly at the same time as employer contributions are paid under section 1 of this chapter. Failure to pay the unemployment insurance surcharge as specified in this section is considered a delinquency under IC 22-4-11-2.
(e) The department:
(1) may use amounts received under this section to pay interest on the advances made to the state from the federal unemployment account in the federal unemployment trust fund under 42 U.S.C. 1321; and
(2) shall deposit any amounts received under this section and not used for the purposes described in subdivision (1) in the unemployment insurance benefit fund established under IC 22-4-26.
(f) Amounts paid under this section and used as provided in subsection (e)(1) do not affect and may not be charged to the experience account of any employer. Amounts paid under this section and used as provided in subsection (e)(2) must be subtracted from the total amount of benefits charged to the fund under IC 22-4-11-1 in determining each employer's share of those benefits under IC 22-4-11-2(e).
