If the amount appropriated under s. 20.445 (1) (fx) is insufficient to make full payment of the amount due for any year, the department shall then apply any unencumbered balance in the unemployment interest payment fund and any amounts paid under s. 108.20 (2m). If those amounts are insufficient to make full payment of the amount due for any year, the department shall require each employer subject to this chapter as of the date a rate is established under this subsection shall to pay an assessment to the unemployment interest payment fund at a rate established by the department sufficient to pay interest due on those advances from the federal unemployment account under title XII of the social security act (42 USC 1321 to 1324). The rate established by the department for employers who finance benefits under s. 108.15 (2), 108.151 (2), or 108.152 (1) shall be 75% of the rate established for other employers.

Each assessment made under this subsection is due on the 30th day commencing after the date on which notice of the assessment is mailed by the department. If the amounts collected from employers under this subsection are in excess of the amounts needed to pay interest due, the department shall use any excess to pay interest owed in subsequent years on advances from the federal unemployment account. If the department determines that additional interest obligations are unlikely, the department shall transfer the excess to the balancing account of the fund.
