Employee Retention Credit

Navigate the complexities of ERC audits and ensure you receive your benefits.

While the Employee Retention Credit has immense potential, it has also created headaches for taxpayers and the IRS alike.

The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) is a refundable tax credit that was designed to help organizations keep their employees on payroll during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, recent developments in ERC processing and IRS examinations have left many who made claims wondering whether they will receive them. Others fear they will be penalized for an overreaching claim.

Eide Bailly has helped hundreds of clients benefit from the ERC and navigate the withdrawal and audit processes.
