December 16, 2020 - The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), signed into law by President Trump in March 2020, requires certain employers to provide employees with paid sick leave and expanded family and medical leave for reasons related to COVID-19. The Act, administered by the U.S. Department of Labor, contains a provision for a payroll tax credit taken on IRS Form 941 by the employer.
The payroll tax credit, administered by the Internal Revenue Service, provides covered employers a dollar for dollar reimbursement for all qualifying wages paid under FFCRA, the portion of employer Medicare Tax paid on the qualifying wages and qualifying health insurance expense as it relates to the employee on leave. The three-part credit is applied against the employer’s payroll tax liability on Form 941.
