The deadlines for claiming the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) vary depending on the quarter in which you paid qualified wages.
- For quarters in 2020: The deadline to claim the ERTC for quarters in 2020 is April 15, 2024.
- For quarters in 2021: The deadline to claim the ERTC for quarters in 2021 is April 15, 2025.
It is important to note that these are the deadlines for filing your original ERTC claim. If you need to amend your claim, you will have an additional three years to do so.
For example, if you paid qualified wages in Q4 2020, you have until April 15, 2024, to file your original ERTC claim. However, if you need to amend your claim, you have until April 15, 2027, to do so.
If you miss the deadline to file your ERTC claim, you may still be able to claim the credit, but you may have to pay penalties.
