Business Developments and Relief Opportunities

Posted by Admin Posted on Mar 25 2020

As we continue to experience the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, government agencies are passing laws to help businesses deal with the impact of the sudden economic slowdown.  In this email, we summarize some of the major developments and relief opportunities you should be aware of.  If you’re located outside of Iowa, please note that many other states are offering similar relief efforts as Iowa.  Additional developments are sure to transpire, including the $2 trillion stimulus/relief package Congress is currently working on, but here is what we know as of today:

  • Enacted as part of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act on March 18
  • Certain employers are required to pay sick leave to certain employees taking leave due to COVID-19
  • Payroll tax credits are available to reimburse the employer for 100% of the sick leave paid
  • Tax credits also available to self-employed individuals using the same benefit limits

As circumstances around COVID-19 progresses, relief efforts will continue to change; accordingly, the information and guidance provided in this email is subject to change.  We will attempt to inform you of additional guidance as it becomes available.  Our team is available to answer questions and provide additional information and assistance, with the understanding that it is difficult to stay completely informed of all the changes as this unprecedented situation continues to evolve.
