Do I Qualify For Employee Retention Credit
ncarol.com/10234837

HENDERSON, N.C. - ncarol.com -- 1. Business operations: To qualify for the ERC, your business must have been partially or fully suspended by a government order due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This means that if your business was forced to close or limit its operations directly because of a government mandate, you may be eligible for the credit.

2. Gross receipts decline: If your business did not face a government order but experienced a significant decline in gross receipts, you may also qualify for the ERC. A significant decline is generally defined as a 50% drop in gross receipts in any quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019. However, starting from the first quarter of 2021, the threshold has been lowered to a 20% decline.

3. Business size: The ERC is available to businesses of all sizes, including large corporations and small businesses. There are no restrictions on the size of the business for eligibility purposes.

4. Period of eligibility: The ERC was initially applicable to wages paid between March 12, 2020, and December 31, 2020. However, subsequent legislation extended and expanded the credit. Under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 and the American Rescue Plan Act, the ERC is now available for wages paid between January 1, 2021, and December 31, 2021.

5. Interaction with other relief programs: It's important to note that you cannot claim the ERC for wages that have already been covered by a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan. However, the ERC may be applicable for wages that were not forgiven under a PPP loan or for which a PPP loan was not applied.

It's highly recommended to consult with a qualified tax professional or access official IRS guidance to ensure accurate understanding and application of the specific eligibility criteria for the Employee Retention Credit.
