Nebraska uses single and married tax tables to calculate payroll withholding amounts for each employee. Withholding tax formulas changed in 2023, with adjustments to exemptions and step table amounts. The top rates also decreased a bit.
The Nebraska withholding tables have changed 10 times in the past 33 years.

Nebraska State Unemployment Tax Instructions
For most employers, the Nebraska SUTA unemployment insurance tax applied to the first $9,000.00 in wages paid to each employee (2023 cutoff, unchanged since 2007). However, employers in "category 20" pay SUTA on the first $24,000 of wages. That includes new construction companies, which will need to adjust the cutoff amount.
For their first two years, new employers are assigned a tax rate that depends on the type of business (5.4% for new construction companies). After that, employers rates are based on their experience factor (rates can vary between .24% and 5.4%).
