ADVISORY:          UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE PROGRAM LETTER NO. 06-11

TO:                STATE WORKFORCE AGENCIES

FROM:              JANE OATES /s/
                   Assistant Secretary

SUBJECT:           Revised Federal Schedule of Remuneration for Use in Determining Benefit
                   Eligibility under the Unemployment Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers
                   (UCX) Program

1. Purpose. To ensure states are aware of the revised Schedule of Remuneration for the UCX
program, which was issued December 28, 2010, and reflects the military pay increase effective
January 1, 2011.

2. References. 5 U.S.C. 8521 (a)(2); 20 CFR 614.12; UIPL No. 47-01; and Chapter IV, ET
Handbook No. 384, Second Edition.

3. Instructions. Each year, the Department of Defense issues a Schedule of Remuneration that
may be used by states, as needed, for UCX purposes. States must use the schedule to determine
Federal military wages for UCX “first claims” ONLY when the Federal Claims Control Center
(FCCC) responds to a request for information indicating that there is no Copy 5 of the Certificate
of Release or Discharge from Active Duty (DD Form 214) for an individual under the social
security number provided. A response from the FCCC that indicates “no DD214 on file” will
prompt the state to start the affidavit process and to use the attached schedule to calculate the
Federal military wages for an unemployment insurance or UCX monetary determination.

The attached schedule applies to UCX “first claims” filed beginning with the first day of the first
week that begins on or after January 2, 2011, pursuant to the UCX program regulations (see 20
CFR 614.12(c)). States must continue to use the existing schedule for UCX “first claims” filed
before the effective date of the attached revised schedule. As provided by 20 CFR 614.12(d), the
attached schedule will be published as a notice in the Federal Register.

4. Action Requested. State Administrators should provide the above instructions and the
attached revised schedule to appropriate staff.

5. Inquiries. Direct questions to the appropriate Regional Office.

6. Attachment. 2011 Federal Schedule of Remuneration.

The Federal Schedule includes columns reflecting derived weekly and daily rates. This revised Federal Schedule of
Remuneration is effective for UCX “first claims” filed beginning with the first day of the first week which begins on
or after January 2, 2011, pursuant to 20 CFR 614.12(c).

*Some grades reflect fewer dollars when compared to 2010 figures. The rates for 2011 were averaged by grade
Regular Military Compensation (RMC) values for the indicated grade. There was a 1.4 percent increase for basic
pay. However, the RMC includes housing allowances which vary throughout the U.S. and are based on collected
housing data for each area for rental values, which have gone down in many places. The overall by-grade average for
housing allowances is used in this case. Military pay is affected by changes in tax rates versus changes in taxable vs
tax-exempt pay. Finally, RMC by-grade averages change due to shifts in the number of people in grade and pay cells
demographically.
