Employer Tax Credits

Some employers may receive tax credits for sick leave wages and family leave wages they paid. Review the IRS COVID-19 Related Tax Credits to find out if your business qualifies and for instructions for how to claim your credit.

• Employers with fewer than 500 employees may receive up to $17,110 per employee to provide employees with up to 10 days of paid sick leave and up to 12 weeks of paid family leave, from April 1 through September 30, 2021. 
• Certain self-employed individuals in similar circumstances are entitled to similar credits as are schools, public hospitals, and other state and local government employers. 
• Businesses can access the advanceable, refundable tax credit in real-time by reducing the amounts they set aside to pay payroll taxes and employee withholding, and then claim any excess on their quarterly tax filings or request for an advance payment from the IRS.
• Roughly 6 million businesses and more than 30 million workers nationwide are eligible for this credit.
