DEPARTMENT OF LABOR 

Employment and Training 

Administration 

Notice of Conditional Approval of New 

York States’ Application for the Partial 

Deferral of Interest Accrued on 

Outstanding Title XII Loans Otherwise 

Payable on or before September 30, 

2021 

Title XII Section 1202(b)(3)(C) of the 

Social Security Act (SSA) provides that 

a state may defer payment of threefourths of interest due on outstanding 

advances to state unemployment trust 

funds under Title XII Section 1201 SSA 

on or before September 30 of a given 

year if the state’s rate of insured 

unemployment (IUR) during the first six 

months of the prior calendar year 

equaled or exceeded 7.5 percent. Title 

XII Section 1202(b)(3)(C)(i) and 20 CFR 

606.41(c) provide that a qualifying state 

must pay at least 25 percent of the 

amount due on or before September 30 

of the taxable year, and must pay at least 

one-third of the remaining amount on or 

before September 30 in each of the 

following three years. 20 CFR 606.41(d) 

further clarifies that the timely and full 

payment of one-fourth of the interest 

due prior to October 1 is a precondition 

to approval of this deferral. 

The New York State Department of 

Labor applied for this deferral prior to 

the July 1, 2021 deadline. Pursuant to 20 

CFR 606.41(e)(2) the Employment and 

Training Administration has confirmed 

that the state’s rate of insured 

unemployment exceeded the 7.5 percent 

threshold during the first 6 months of 

calendar year 2020. As such New York’s 

application for the high unemployment 

deferral has been conditionally 

approved contingent on the timely 

payment of one-fourth of the interest 

due on or before September 30, 2021.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Employment
