Employee Retention Credit Services

What is the Employee Retention Credit (ERC)?

The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) is a refundable federal payroll tax credit designed to support businesses who retained their employees through COVID-19. This valuable credit can provide up to $26,000 per employee across the 2020 and 2021 calendar years.

Even though the tax credit expired in September 2021, qualified businesses, nonprofits, and employers can still file paperwork and retroactively receive claims for the Employee Retention Credit. Employers can amend previously submitted forms by filing and submitting Form 941-X so they can retroactively claim the Employee Retention Credit. The deadline for filing a claim relating to 2020 is April 15, 2024.  For 2021 claims, the deadline is April 15, 2025.

 

Who is Eligible?

You may qualify for ERC if your business or nonprofit experienced a significant decline in gross receipts during 2020 or a decline in gross receipts during the first three quarters of 2021.  A business may also qualify if it was under government restrictions related to Covid-19 in 2020 or 2021.
