The Time is Now!

The Time is Now!

64%: That is how much state unemployment taxes (SUTA) per employee have increased since 2009. The time is NOW to review your options!

Nonprofits, Tribal Nations, and governmental entities are required to pay for unemployment claims in one of two ways:

1. State Unemployment Insurance Tax (SUI)

2. Reimbursement Financing

There is a safe alternative to paying the UI tax and self-insurance.

First Nonprofit offers two different unemployment insurance programs:

Unemployment Savings Programs

– Lower cost than the SUI Tax

– Fixed annual cost

– An interest-bearing, proprietary reserve account owned by the nonprofit

– Stop loss insurance for each individual member account

– No pooling or shared risk

– Professional claims management

– Representation at all hearings

Bonded Service Program

– Lower cost than the SUI Tax

– Fully insured, guaranteed cost coverage

– Fee set at a percentage of gross payroll

– Experience Credits for positive claims performance

– Multi-year coverage options

– Professional claims management

– Representation at all hearings

Testimonials

Working with Marshal Whittey at First Nonprofit has been a great experience. He handles our request as a priority and goes above and beyond to resolve any issues we have in a timely manner. Marshall follows through to the end and ensures our needs are met. He has been a great resource for LSC and our “go to” for any tax questions we may have. With LSC transitioning several facilities into one federal tax identification number, First Nonprofit was able to assist and provide guidance with best practices resolving claims to each entity. Additionally First Nonprofit provided knowledge (information materials) and one on one training to HRS group with best practices to handle claims state adjudicated, fraudulent claims, and appeals. And processing information in the First Nonprofit [unemployment claims] system allows for timely information can be collected.

My experience with FNP has been wonderful. Unemployment in general is quite confusing and FNP has simplified the process for us. Everyone we have reached out to or worked with has been very helpful and follows up to be sure we understand the information. I am so happy we made the switch to FNP!

Stone Valley Community Charter School, Huntingdon, PA

First Nonprofit smoothed the unemployment perils for our organization during Covid. Without the ability to cap our UI exposure, we would not have been able to weather the storm. The program worked perfectly and we have come out of the pandemic ready to forge on. Thanks FNP!

Jewish Silicon Valley, Los Gatos, CA

My experience with the FNP has been fantastic. The idea of setting funds aside for the unemployment tax liability is a bedrock for nonprofit organizations like mine, namely ASHBA; what is even more advantageous is having the FNP as a custodian of those funds. 100% recommended!

American Saddlebred Horse & Breeders Association, Inc., Lexington, KY

I would like to comment on my experience with FNP….to date our District has saved $1,000’s of dollars by being enrolled in the First Nonprofit program. My only regret is that we did not know about this method of paying unemployment tax years ago….as I had figured about five years

ago, had we enrolled 15-20 years ago, we could have saved our small school district upwards of $500,000 in payments to IDES. Also we would have had a pretty hefty sum of money in our Reserve Account. Thankfully I attended a workshop hosted by First Nonprofit back in 2015 which got the ball rolling!

Luckily for us, our interactions regarding any issues with staffing has been very minimal! I can say that all other interactions with regards to billing, 941 reporting, etc. have been extremely pleasant, accommodating and easy to work with. Kim Ghanayem is always prompt, professional and friendly. Thank you so much!
