It is important to keep in mind that this calculator should not be relied upon or used for any other purpose, including applying for the ERC or amending tax returns.

        What is the Employee Retention Credit?

        The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) is a tax credit created under the CARES Act. This refundable tax credit is a relief measure for businesses that encourages them to keep employees on their payroll. The ERC legislation was expanded under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, which took effect on January 1, 2021, and because of this expansion, all employers who took PPP loans could be eligible for the ERC for 2020 and 2021.

        How much can I claim under the ERC? keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up

        This credit is calculated differently for eligible quarters in 2020 and 2021. An eligible employer can claim up to $5,000 per employee in 2020 and up to $7,000 per employee per qualifying quarter in 2021. The maximum amount you can claim per employee is $26,000.

        I employ many full-time workers. Can I still claim? keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up

        While small employers with 100 or fewer employees in 2020 (500 or fewer in 2021) receive more benefits under ERC, large employers can still take advantage of the ERC.

        Can I receive a PPP loan and still claim the ERC? keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up

        Yes! While wages funded by a PPP loan can’t be included in the ERC calculation, ERC has much wider applicability than your PPP loans. During your claim process with REV by Leyton, you’ll need to provide details on your PPP loans to help qualify employee wages for the ERC.

        I’m not sure if my business qualifies. What kind of business qualifies? keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up
