The employee retention tax credit (ERTC) aka ERC is a form of government assistance created under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act to help businesses and organizations keep employees on their payroll during the pandemic. 

 

In short, the ERC gives eligible employers payroll tax credits for wages and health insurance paid to employees for qualifying periods.

Due to the complex tax code and difficulty determining eligibility – many business owners simply have not taken advantage of the ERC program. However, this is a savings opportunity that companies cannot afford to miss and it is not too late to claim your tax credit.
