UI trust fund solvency Great Recession posed most serious challenge to UI financing in the system’s history 36 states borrowed from the U.S. Treasury to pay UI benefits from 2009 through 2013, totaling $93 billion Employers in states with federal loans were faced with risk of increased federal FUTA taxes Washington state’s UI trust fund went from a balance of $4 billion at the start of the recession to a balance of $2.3 billion at the end of 2013, allowing us to continue paying benefits without borrowing federal funds After a state has passed two January 1’s with an outstanding loan in each successive year it will begin to lose a portion of its FUTA credit which will go towards repayment of the loan.
