Employee Retention Credit

Authors/Creators

Description

The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) was created to help qualifying employers that kept workers on payroll during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ignite HCM's ERC service page explains how businesses could examine payroll records, identify eligible wages, and prepare amended employment tax returns.

The process began with uploading Form 941 returns, Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) documents, and payroll data. Tax professionals then calculated the potential credit and prepared Form 941-X amendments when a claim met IRS rules.

The page also describes support from US-based accounting professionals and a dedicated service specialist. It lists a free qualification consultation.

Ignite HCM highlights past client credit amounts on its website, including a reported $317,551.39 for one 2020 case and $1,252,330.98 for a first-quarter 2021 case. These are examples of past results, not promises of future refunds. Its page also notes that PPP recipients could potentially qualify when wages weren't counted twice.

The ERC applied to qualifying wages paid during 2020 and 2021. Standard filing deadlines generally passed in 2024 and 2025, so employers should check the status of claims and speak with a qualified tax professional before taking action.
