As a Business, how can I save money?

Your business can qualify for tax credits when you hire certain workers. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit is a federal tax credit that encourages employers to hire targeted groups of job seekers by reducing employer's federal income tax liability. To participate, employers must complete IRS Form 8850 and ETA Form 9061 or 9062. To get these forms and more information, visit the IRS web site or call 1-800-829-1040 or the new FAX-ON-DEMAND number at 1-877-828-2050.
