  • To review Circular 230 and other ethical issues relating to ERC.

  • To define what “wages” are for ERC purposes.
  • To discuss the basics of the aggregation rules.
  • To evaluate the impact of ERC on income tax returns.

Course Overview

This course is valid up to December 31st, 2024 for CFP Professionals. It is advisable to complete this course before that to process the credit on time.

In mid-September, the IRS announced a moratorium on processing new employee retention credit (ERC) claims through at least December 31, 2023. Tax professionals should welcome this change, as the program has been overrun with wrongful claims (up to 95% wrongful claims recently, according to the IRS).

With this action, tax pros may think ERC is dead, or be afraid of putting in claims for clients who qualify. One thing to be clear on is, the program is still active. And, a legitimate claim is not a scam. There’s no reason for a client who legitimately qualifies to not apply. 

This webinar covers the moratorium in detail, as well as recent IRS guidance on supply chain disruptions, and other “what’s new” topics. We have a deep discussion of ethics, in particular, what a tax pro should do if your client went to a credit mill and put in a wrongful claim. The IRS is going to be rolling out 2 options for businesses that made wrongful claims: one option is to withdraw the credit claim before it’s been processed, and the other option will be an amnesty program for businesses that made wrongful claims that have already been paid. Exact details are still pending, but we will talk about what we know. And, through it all, practitioners have ethical considerations and client relationship considerations. We then discuss aspects of qualifying for ERC: what is a shutdown? What is the gross receipts test? Who is a recovery startup? We will tackle the complex area of aggregating related businesses, and cover the impact of ERC on income tax returns.

Major Topics Covered:

  • What’s New: IRS Chief Council Memorandum, FAQs, and Enforcement
  • Ways to Qualify
  • Scenario Analysis
  • More on Shutdowns
  • Gross Receipts Test
  • PPP Loans, FFCRA Wages
  • Tax Deductions
  • Retroactive Claims
  • Ethics Discussion

Join this CE Tax Webinar, which is sponsored by ERC-PPP Tax Specialist, one of the original consulting firms in the ERC arena. We work exclusively with accounting firms and tax pros in consulting engagements with the firm or tax pro, to help determine ERC qualification, and to help you make a successful ERC claim for your client if the client legitimately qualifies.
