qualify for the ERC?

You don’t qualify just because the pandemic impacted your school. Your industry, state, and circumstances determine whether you qualify for this credit and how much.

You may not qualify for the entire $26,000 per employee, but you should still consider this incentive if you’ve faced any of the following impacts:

  • Switched to virtual learning;
  • Abided by social distancing mandates;
  • Restrictions on the use of facilities; and
  • Enrollment Limitations.
