(1) Some of the conditions thus attached to the allowance of a credit are designed to give assurance that the state unemployment compensation law shall be one in substance as well as name. The provisions of Section 903 defining those criteria are stated in the margin. If the taxpayer has made contributions to an unemployment fund under a state law, he may credit such contributions against the federal tax, provided, however, that the total credit allowed to any taxpayer shall not exceed 90 per centum of the tax against which it is credited, and provided also that the state law shall have been certified to the Secretary of the Treasury by the Social Security Board as satisfying certain minimum criteria. In certain circumstances, however, credits are allowable. The proceeds, when collected, go into the Treasury of the United States like internal-revenue collections generally. During the calendar year 1936 the rate is to be one per cent, during 1937 two per cent, and three per cent thereafter. The tax begins with the year 1936, and is payable for the first time on January 31, 1937.
