INDIANAPOLIS - New projections show Indiana will be borrowing money from the federal government to pay unemployment claims until 2015, despite steep tax increases on businesses that take effect in January.

Department of Workforce Development officials also said Wednesday the projection for paying back the billions of dollars in loans has been extended to 2022.
