# Retrieve upcoming minimum wage rate updates

> Retrieve upcoming minimum wage rate updates via API. Covers `/prp/v1/minimumwage/rates/effective`, effective date ranges, and linking rates back to `mwUid` values.

Minimum wage rates are updated throughout the country on an ongoing basis as legislation is passed within different jurisdictions. As soon as Symmetry confirms a future minimum wage rate, Payroll Point is updated in real time. You can use the `/prp/v1/minimumwage/rates/effective` endpoint to view future-dated effective rates.

For details on the `mwUid` path segment used in these requests, see [Minimum wage unique IDs](/prp/core-concepts/mw-uid-elements). For minimum wage in Payroll Point generally, see [Wage Rates overview](/prp/portal/wage-rates).

## View upcoming minimum wage changes

To view future-dated effective rates, call `/prp/v1/minimumwage/rates/effective` and set the date range using the `from` and `to` query parameters.

* `from` defaults to the current date if you omit it.
* `to` defaults to `9999-12-31` if you omit it, which returns every future rate from the `from` date onward.

### Example 1: Future date range for California

To see future-dated minimum wage rate changes for the state of California between January 1, 2027 and June 30, 2027, set the following query parameters:

* `mwUid=06-*-*-*-*-*`
* `from=2027-01-01`
* `to=2027-06-30`

Production URL:

```text theme={null}
https://api.symmetry.com/prp/v1/minimumwage/rates/effective?mwUid=06-*-*-*-*-*&from=2027-01-01&to=2027-06-30
```

### Example 2: View all upcoming rate changes

To retrieve all future-dated minimum wage rates across the United States and its territories, use the following query parameter:

* `mwUid=*-*-*-*-*-*`

Production URL:

```text theme={null}

```
