On Nov. 5, 2021, Congress passed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, bringing an end to the ERC as of Oct. 1, 2021. But if you have not yet made a claim to the ERC, you can still do so against qualified wages you paid to your employees up to Sept. 30, 2021, plus applicable employment taxes. In fact, you have up to three years from the end of the program to claim the ERC.
