May a tax rate transfer from an existing employer to a new employer? – Workforce Alabama A new employer that acquires the organization, trade or business of another liable employer (the predecessor) is assigned the experience (benefit charges and taxable payroll) of the predecessor. The predecessor’s experience is used to determine the successor’s tax rate. If proper notification and wage transcripts are provided to the Alabama Department of Workforce within the time prescribed by the Alabama UC law, the new employer may be entitled to a rate based on partial acquisition of the predecessor.
