Work Opportunity Tax Credit Renewed for FIVE Years!

Work Opportunity Tax Credit Renewed 2025

With the Covid-19 Relief Bill that passed and was signed into law on December 27th, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit has been extended through December 31, 2025. This is great news for our WOTC customers because they will not have to deal with any hiatus or wait for a renewal. As always we will keep you apprised of any changes or additional updates.

 

Important Notice: URL Changes for Online WOTC Forms

reminder

On Sunday, January 17, 2021 CMS will be updating the URLs for completing the WOTC survey online and accessing your Administration portal. The domains will automatically forward to their new address, so there will be no interruption in service. It will be helpful to update any saved links or bookmarks you have when this change takes place. We will send out reminder emails before and after the change.

Understanding WOTC’s Target Groups: Qualified IV-A Recipient

TANF
New hires who fall under one or more of WOTC’s Target Groups may make you eligible for a WOTC Tax Credit. Target Group #1 is the Qualified IV-A Recipient. An Qualified IV-A Recipient is an individual who is a member of a family receiving assistance under a state plan approved under part A of title IV of the Social Security Act relating to Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). The assistance must be received for any 9-month period during the 18-month period ending on the hiring date. California issues the most tax credit certifications for this target group.
