ERTC Express will perform the following in order to evaluate, analyze, and procure your eligible incentives:
• Determine company qualification for specialized incentive programs;
• Collect documentation in order to determine company utilization of incentives; and
• Establish total fee to procure benefit(s).
Your Company agrees to provide the necessary documentation for the Credit Projection Report.
Based on information provided in this qualification form along with your Company tax returns, once analyzed, ERTC Express will contact your Company with a conservative estimate of credits that ERTC Express’ projects will be available to you in the form of repayment of overpaid taxes from a federal and/or state tax authority.
If you wish to contract ERTC Express to proceed, a consulting agreement and CPA engagement letter will be offered with further details, fees, and expectations. ERTC Express does not accept any project unless it determines your Company qualifies for the refunds.
All the documentation is prepared so that your Company can apply the credits to past or current tax liability. Credits arrive in the form of a refund check. The credits may also be carried forward to offset tax liability in the future. If any credit we calculated is denied for any reason, ERTC Express will refund that portion of its fee.
