The IRS has announced that it will stop processing new employee retention credit (ERC) claims through at least December 31, 2023. This move is in response to promoters who have aggressively encouraged employers to file false or doubtful ERC claims for this refundable credit available to eligible businesses that paid wages after March 12, 2020, through the end of the program to keep their staffs employed during the height of the pandemic. (The IRS has not prohibited taxpayers from submitting new ERC claims. New ERC claims will simply be held in reserve until the IRS once again begins processing claims.)
