Frequently Asked Questions

Alaska does not have a state income tax, so employers are only required to manage federal income and payroll taxes like Social Security and Medicare. However, they must pay the Alaska Unemployment Insurance Tax, with rates varying from 1% to 5.4% based on the employer’s experience rating and the taxable wage limit​​​​.

Employers must report new hires within 20 days of the employee’s start date to the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, providing details like the employee’s name, address, Social Security Number, and the employer’s federal tax ID number​​.

Alaska’s State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) taxes are due quarterly, with deadlines on April 30, July 31, October 31, and January 31. If a due date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the filing is due the next business day​​.

Nonprofit organizations in Alaska are not exempt from state unemployment tax. They are subject to this tax if they pay an employee $250 or more in a quarter or have four or more employees at any time during 20 weeks in a year or the preceding calendar year​​.

Employers need to register with the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development to obtain an Alaska Employer Security Tax Account Number. Information required for registration includes the name and Social Security number of all responsible parties, business address, and federal Employer Identification Number (EIN)​​.
