Course Description

After last year's IRS moratorium on processing Employee Retention Credit refund claims, the Service has slowly resumed processing the returns. Employers seeking these refunds are now receiving letters seeking to examine claims or disallow them altogether. And those who have heard nothing may consider refund claim litigation as their only remedy.

In this webinar, Peter Haukebo and Rebecca Sheppard will guide attendees through these and other ERC issues as they provide an update on the state of the ERC program.

Learning Objectives:


  • Summarize common reasons for ERC disallowance letters, how to identify them, and effective strategies for disputing and resolving these issues

  • Outline ERC audit procedures including key areas of focus for auditors and best practices for documentation and response

  • Describe the litigation process related to ERC claims, including common legal challenges and strategies for managing disputes and avoiding litigation pitfalls

  • List actionable steps and best practices for ensuring ongoing compliance with ERC regulations, minimizing risk, and preparing for potential audits or legal challenges Updates within current litigation
