I have been studying and working with ERC Tax credits now for over 6 months.
During that time I have gained a wealth of knowledge. I have gone through
extensive training and am now a Certified ERC Specialist.
Here is my biggest fear for potential ERC clients and ERC agents.
Whenever there is this much money involved it is going to attract bad actors
those that just want pray on unsuspecting businesses and take advantage of them.
In some cases its unintended ignorance that effectively cheats business clients out of
tens of thousands even 100’s of thousands of dollars simply because the agent and the client
are unaware of what is possible.
What do I mean, well for example there are non-CPA mostly just marketing firms using paid
preparers that go for the low hanging fruit. Or what I call the relatively easy ERC filings.The problem
for the client here is that they only qualify the easy to qualify quarters leaving a lot of money
on the table the client could have had.
For example lets take a client with 30 employees and one of these non-CPA paid preparer outfits
says to the client, congratulations you’re going to get back $7000 per employee or $210,000 which
sounds like a lot of money because it is. The client at this point is quite excited.
However, what the client doesn’t realize is they are being taken advantage of. Based on the average amount per employee the same client with 30 employees could have potentially been looking at over $600,000 with Jorns and Associates.
The solution for the client is several fold:
First is to find out the experience and pedigree of the firm doing the filing.
There are questions you need to ask them like:
- What do you tend to average per employee when you file. If they try to avoid the question by saying every client is different and it depends upon the business. While this is at least partially true if they don’t give you a straight answer go elsewhere..
- Who is actually doing your work – paid preparers? is the work farmed out or done totally in house?
Is a CPA signing off on the filing? If not once again I would go elsewhere. - What kind of justification report do you prepare for the client to justify the ERC filing amount?
The IRS is just starting to audit ERC filings starting as you might have guessed with the filings
of these paid preparers.And if adequate justification reports are not there very likely the IRS will
want a repayment of all or part of the ERC credit. This could put the client in a real bind with most likely little help from the people that filed for them.
It could potentially cause the clients business to go bankrupt. Let’s say for example they are audited
a couple years down the road and the IRS denies the filing. At this point let’s say the client paid $30,000
- $40,000 or more to the outfit doing their filing. Well guess what the IRS could want all their
money back including the money paid to the outfit doing the filing. Good luck getting that money,
in this case, a couple years later that outfit could be out of business.
With a reputable firm like Jorns and Associates CPA’s its highly unlikely this situation would occur with them. Because, the level of documentation and justification they provide is the best in the industry. Often in the hundreds of pages of justification.
But if this would occur Jorns would refund whatever portion of their services the client was denied by the IRS.
If a client decides to file with Jorns and Associates they can rest easy knowing their filing on going to be prepared right with the maximum possible credit due them, With complete audit protection, which pretty much assures them what they get back they are going to get to keep.
One other thing don’t be fooled by what by one of these outfits that say we only charge a 15% contingency fee for the work.
Jorns and Associates CPA’s charges 20%, Jorns almost always gets at least 20% more
money back for their clients.
It’s not how much you pay its how much you get back.
