A un tipo impositivo efectivo del 0,6%, eso supone $42. Un empleado que gane $5 000 tributa por la totalidad de los $5 000, lo que supone $30. Los salarios superiores a $7 000 por empleado nunca est\u00e1n sujetos al FUTA.<\/p>\n\n<h2>El Estado de Cr\u00e9dito y los Estados de Reducci\u00f3n de Cr\u00e9dito<\/h2>\n\n<p>La deducci\u00f3n 5.4% es la raz\u00f3n por la que la mayor\u00eda de los empresarios pagan solo 0.6%. Se obtiene al pagar \u00edntegramente y a tiempo las cotizaciones al seguro de desempleo estatal. Pero hay una excepci\u00f3n: si su estado ha solicitado un pr\u00e9stamo al gobierno federal para pagar las prestaciones por desempleo y a\u00fan no lo ha devuelto, el gobierno federal reduce el cr\u00e9dito, lo que eleva el tipo efectivo del FUTA para los empleadores de ese estado. Para 2026, un peque\u00f1o n\u00famero de jurisdicciones (como California y las Islas V\u00edrgenes de los Estados Unidos) se han visto afectadas por reducciones del cr\u00e9dito. Comprueba si tu estado se ve afectado antes de cerrar la n\u00f3mina.<\/p>\n\n<h2>\u00bfQui\u00e9n tiene que pagar la FUTA?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Seg\u00fan el IRS, generalmente debe pagar FUTA si cumple alguna de las siguientes condiciones:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Has pagado $1.500 o m\u00e1s en concepto de salarios en cualquier trimestre natural, o<\/li>\n<li>Tuviste uno o m\u00e1s empleados durante al menos parte de un d\u00eda en 20 o m\u00e1s semanas diferentes del a\u00f1o.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Es importante que los contratistas independientes que reciben un pago mediante el formulario 1099 no est\u00e9n sujetos al FUTA, pero clasificar err\u00f3neamente a un empleado como contratista puede generar impuestos atrasados y multas.
