“The ERC offers a welcome cash infusion as owners struggle with inflation, rising interest rates and tight labor markets.”
COVID-19 challenged everyone - particularly business owners. As the world shut down and the economy came to a halt, many people were left with uncertainty about the future of their business, their employees, and their customers. Now, as the world opens up again, businesses must focus on recovering and, thankfully, the ERC government program can help with this process.
The Employee Retention Credit, or ERC, is a government authorized stimulus program designed to compensate businesses that were able to keep their employees during COVID. Due to the extremely complex IRS tax code and qualifications, billions of dollars will go unclaimed.
Details of the program include:

Do I have to repay the ERC Credit?
No! This is not a loan. It's a refundable tax credit. When we file your ERC claim, we request a refund check on your behalf.
Can't I just have my CPA file? Why would I use ERCBolt?
Of course. The challenge is the ERC credit is taken on payroll returns, not business income tax returns, which is what most CPAs handle. As a result, CPAs don't typically process this credit unless they also handle payroll in-house. This is why the credit is so underutilized. Despite this, we receive a lot of clients from CPAs.
In our experience, the complexity and time investment required to understand the ERC program (580+ pages of IRS code) means that very few people are able to effectively maximize the credit for your business.
I got PPP funds already. Can I also get ERC?
Yes, initially, employers could choose between PPP and ERTC credits, but not both. However, on March 11, 2021, The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was signed into law and included changes to existing stimulus programs, including allowing companies to have a PPP loan and still take advantage of the ERC credit. However, there are some restrictions. We take this into account when processing your ERC credit.
My revenue went up in 2020. Can I still qualify for the ERC program?
Yes, there are two possible qualifications for the ERC program in 2020: a revenue reduction, or a "full or partial shutdown" of your business due to COVID-19. The IRS describes this as a "government authority" requiring a partial or full shutdown of your business during 2020 or 2021, which includes limiting operations by commerce, inability to travel, or restrictions on group meetings. Below are some examples of qualifying events:
Example 1: A restaurant must close or limit on-site dining due to COVID-19 restrictions, such as closing every other table.
Example 2: A business that needs to meet with clients in person and has to cancel meetings due to COVID-19 restrictions.
A business has to reduce operating hours because of COVID-19 restrictions and increased cleaning requirements.
Example 4: A business experienced delayed production timelines caused by supply chain disruptions.
Example 5: A business with a planned event has to cancel or restrict attendance due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Will the ERC funds run out?
This is not a lending program - tax refunds are issued by the US Treasury. Therefore, all eligible employers will receive the funds as long as filings are submitted in time.
How will I make payment?
We offer three payment options: you may pay your fee upfront at a significant discount - OR - you can put 5% down and pay a discounted fee once you receive your credit - OR - you pay $0 upfront and the full fee can be deducted from your refund once received. Upfront payments can be completed by credit card.
Can I qualify for the ERC if I'm self employed?
No, if you are majority owner (over 50%) of your company then your wages do not qualify.
How long does it take to get my ERC Credit?
This is how the process works: you send us the required documents and we process an analysis at no charge. The process from start to finish usually happens in 3-5 weeks. If you wish to move forward, you will select your desired payment option and we file your claim. Once filed, refunds are released in 3-6 weeks if you choose the rapid refund option for an additional fee or based IRS backlog. Currently, the IRS has stipulated a 20 week minimum turnaround on the ERC refunds.
Do you offer IRS audit support?
Yes, we offer audit support for all periods. In the event of an audit, we'll step in to handle questions and respond to requests. For reference, we have submitted over 10,000 claims and haven't been audited as a result of our strict compliance standards.
Do I need to file the ERC credits received on my tax returns?
Yes, the ERC funds will need to be reported on your income tax return.
And could be worth tens of thousands to you.
