The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) was enacted in 2020 to provide paid leave to employees affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The act was initially set to expire on December 31, 2020, but it was extended until March 31, 2021. This article will provide an overview of the extended FFCRA tax credit for employers offering COVID-paid leave.

The FFCRA provides two types of paid leave: Emergency Paid Sick Leave (EPSL) and Emergency Paid Family and Medical Leave (EPFML). EPSL is available to employees who are unable to work due to certain COVID-19-related reasons, such as being quarantined or experiencing symptoms of COVID-19. EPFML is available to employees who need to care for a child whose school or childcare provider is closed due to COVID-19.

To be eligible for the FFCRA tax credit, employers must provide paid leave to employees who are unable to work due to COVID-19-related reasons. The tax credit is equal to 100% of the paid leave provided to employees, up to a maximum of $10,000 per employee. Employers can claim the tax credit on their quarterly employment tax returns.

Employers who are eligible for the FFCRA tax credit must comply with certain requirements, including providing notice to employees of their right to paid leave and maintaining records of paid leave provided to employees. Employers who fail to comply with these requirements may be subject to penalties.

In conclusion, the extended FFCRA tax credit provides a valuable benefit to employers who provide paid leave to employees affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Employers who are eligible for the tax credit should take advantage of this benefit to reduce their employment tax liability.
