On September 14th, 2023, the IRS released a statement ordering an immediate moratorium on processing new ERC applications until at least the end of the year. This action comes in response to bad actors overpromising the credit and falsely guaranteeing qualification as a way to collect steep up-front fees.

At ERC Specialists, we believe that this momentary pause will benefit business owners by reducing the number of untrustworthy and aggressive players in the space. While this IRS action will slow the processing of refunds, it DOES NOT indicate the closure of the ERC Program.

Expert, no-obligation review

ERC Specialists stands apart from the multiplicity of ERC scams by offering a safe place where businesses can apply and file with confidence.

Instead of making false guarantees, our trusted questionnaire supplies business owners with a way to navigate the IRS guidelines to see if their business may be eligible for claiming the ERC.

Clarity before you file

If you feel your business is eligible for the ERC program, due to being affected by Covid-19 shutdowns, we suggest you review our compiled list of shutdown orders and keep applicable documents in your records, as well as details showing how that order affected your business. ERC Specialists' Government Shutdown Tool gives our customers easy access to these shutdown orders so they can stay informed and make confident decisions.

The Employee Retention 
Credit

COVID-19 has been a challenge for all of us. As the world shut down the economy came to a halt, leaving the future of many businesses in a precarious position. As we begin to find normalcy again, businesses now have to focus on recovering and fortunately, several government programs are easing this process.

One such program is the Employee Retention Credit or ERC, which is a generous stimulus program designed to bolster those businesses that were able to retain their employees during this challenging time. Due to the extremely complex tax code and qualifications, it is severely underutilized. Details of the program include:

 UP TO $26,000 PER EMPLOYEE

 AVAILABLE FOR 2020 & Q1 - Q3 2021

 QUALIFY WITH DECREASED REVENUE 

 OR QUALIFY WITH COVID EVENT

 NO LIMIT ON FUNDING (ERC IS NOT A LOAN)

 ERC IS A REFUNDABLE TAX CREDIT

Helping you navigate the ERC with confidence

Has the uncertainty surrounding the ERC caused you to question your claim? It’s perfectly normal to have concerns when the market is filled with conflicting information. Let us address the top five concerns from fellow business owners so you can feel more confident in deciding whether applying for the ERC is right for your business.

Why should I trust ERC Specialists?

ERC Specialists recognizes the sudden rise of so-called “ERC mills,” or providers that intentionally misrepresent the credit to drive greater interest from businesses and to get their fees up front. This is why ERC Specialists focuses on transparency in everything we do, providing resources to customers so they know what to expect. We do not require up-front fees to submit your application to the IRS. Your eligibility is based solely on your documentation.

How much effort is this really going to take?

Filing on your own might take hours of research and preparation. Thankfully, with a reputable partner like ERC Specialists, you can eliminate hours of frustration. Our experts can guide you through each step of the process.

Even with the recent IRS statement, we continue to accept new applications and will watch for updated IRS notices surrounding processing timelines.

What if I don’t know what I’m doing?

It’s normal to feel cautious when submitting documents to the IRS, especially when you’re submitting them without assistance. With ERC Specialists, you have a full team of experts on hand who have already helped thousands of businesses successfully claim their credits. Accuracy is of the highest importance to our team when submitting your application to the IRS.

How can I trust ERC Specialists with these types of records?

Filing for ERC does require a transparent examination of payroll reports and payroll tax returns of your business. This process involves reviewing several documents that may contain sensitive information (e.g. your EIN # on your 941 payroll tax return). We’ve taken the proper steps to ensure your documents are protected and encrypted.

What would I do in the event of an IRS audit?

It’s a common misconception that applying for the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) will automatically trigger an audit. This is not true. The IRS may decide to examine your payroll tax returns for a variety of reasons with or without the credit. In the event of an audit, we can connect you to the best resources available.
