1. Check the box for every state (including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) in which you were required to pay state unemployment taxes this year. Note. Make sure that you have applied for a state unemployment number for your business. If you do not have an unemployment account number from a state in which you paid wages, contact the state office to receive one. For a listing of states and contact information, see page 12 of the 2008 Instructions for Form 940. For ease of reference, here is a list of the states and their 2-letter postal abbreviations.

Part 2: Fill out this part to tell us about wages you paid in any state (including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) that is subject to credit reduction.
2. You are subject to credit reduction if you paid wages in any state listed. If you paid wages in any states that are subject to credit reduction, find the lines where the states are listed. In the first box, enter the total taxable FUTA wages that you paid in that state. (Note that the FUTA wage base for all states is $7,000.) Do not use your state unemployment wages here. Then multiply the total taxable FUTA wages by the number shown. Enter your answer in the box at the end of the line. 3.

line 3 Then enter the amount from line 3 onto line 11 of Form 940. Example:
You paid wages to 3 employees in State A. State A is subject to credit reduction at a rate of .003 (.3%). Because you paid wages in a state that is subject to credit reduction, you must fill out Part 2 of Schedule A (Form 940). Since the FUTA wage base is $7,000 for each employee, the total FUTA wage base for you is $21,000.00.
$7,000.00 3 $21,000.00 FUTA wage base for each employee Number of employees you paid in State A Total FUTA wage base

In Part 2, State A is listed on line 2a­b. In the box for 2a, write $21,000.00. Do not use your state unemployment wages here.
$21,000.00 .003 $63.00 Total taxable FUTA wages you paid in State A Credit reduction rate for State A shown on the form Total credit reduction. You would report this amount on line 2b.

DO NOT COMPLETE PART 2 FOR 2008. The U.S. Department of Labor has announced that there are no credit reduction states for tax year 2008.

In this case, you would write $63.00 on line 3 and then enter that amount on line 11 of Form 940.

Attach Schedule A (Form 940) to Form 940 when you file your return.
