Millions of hard working Americans were devastated by COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021. Now you -- Self employed/Independent contractors -- can claim badly needed relief compensation, just as salon owners have been receiving over the past year. Every one of you can get up to $32,220 under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. These are funds meant to compensate you for lost days of work due to lockdowns, illness, self or medically-imposed quarantines, and even school closures that kept you home with your children. And unlike other programs like PPP, these tax credits don’t have to be paid back or forgiven and can be spent any way you want!
There are just a few quick and easy steps to claim the money you are legally entitled to —so let’s get started
All you need to do is fill in the required fields and upload your Tax Returns.
Once you have completed step one, our accountants will calculate your legally entitled tax credit.
E-sign our service agreement that will authorize our accountants to prepare your filings with the IRS to secure those retroactive funds.
We'll prepare and email the finalized documents which you will print, sign and submit directly to the IRS with our pre-paid postage to ensure tracking/delivery.
Receive your money in less than 20 days via our interest-free Advance OR wait the average 20 weeks for the IRS to process your payment.
“Family” is in the name of the law, so it’s self-employed pro’s with dependents who will receive the most from this program. But even those who didn’t have dependents during COVID can qualify for personal sick leave compensation. This tax credit(which we refer to as SETC) was designed to help you recoup losses from COVID-related lockdowns, quarantines, and school closures
Under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), if you are a self-employed person including those who receive a 1099, and if you were not able to work due to reasons related to Coronavirus, you are eligible to receive Sick Leave and Family Leave credits. This is your chance to get paid for the days you were sick, quarantined or even effected by Corona. If a child’s school was closed or you cared for another person, you are also eligible for these relief funds.The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) is a groundbreaking legislation that provides much-needed relief to self-employed individuals and small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. By understanding the key provisions of the FFCRA and how they apply to your specific situation, the PBF will help you maximize your legally entitled share of this little known provision of federal law.
