WOTC Solutions spent a significant amount of time and effort ensuring that the Work Opportunity Tax Credit  was renewed for 2012-2013. Below is a recent letter we received.

Thank you for writing.  As President, it is my privilege to hear from Americans like you who take time to offer their perspective on the serious issues facing our Nation.

The American people are looking for cooperation, consensus, and common sense in our Government, and they have shown they want action.  I intend to deliver that in the months and years ahead.  From putting Americans back to work to expanding access to medical care, my Administration will continue to do what is right to move our Nation forward.  We have enacted the most comprehensive financial reforms in decades, rescued and helped retool our auto industry, expanded student aid to millions of young people, helped level the playing field for working women, and made the largest investment in clean energy in our history.  Because of the courageous acts of our service members, we have been able to end the war in Iraq and take down Osama bin Laden.  We have also made historic commitments to provide for our troops as they return home. 

Securing our country’s future will take time, but I will not stop working to rebuild the kind of America where everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same rules.  I remain committed to working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together:  reducing our deficit; reforming our tax code; fixing our immigration system; and freeing ourselves from foreign oil.

I am always eager to hear ideas that will help our country adapt to changing times and lead us toward a brighter day.  Despite our differences, we know that our destiny is shared and that our country is at its best when we accept our obligations to one another and to future generations.

Thank you, again, for sharing your views.  I encourage you to explorewww.WhiteHouse.gov to learn more about the ways we are moving America forward.

Sincerely,

Barack Obama

Good news in the WOTC world today. These changes would make it  much easier to get your employee's WOTC Certification. Click here to read full story.

Our staff contacted every single member of the House and the Senate in November 2012 in order to let our elected officials know the value and benefit of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit to small businesses across the nation. WOTC was renewed on January 1, 2013 and backdated to January 1, 2012. 

Tax Credits for hiring new employees...

WOTC 2013 Update

The Work Opportunity Tax Credit was renewed on January 1, 2013 and extended through December 31, 2013. This valuable $2400.00 tax credit was stalled the entire 2012 calendar year while Congress struggled to agree on tax reform. Now you can apply for the credit and keep that money in your business rather than sending it to Washington.

The WOTC can be applied for when you hire a new employee from one of the following target groups:

• Designated Community Residents
• SNAP Recipients
• TANF Recipients
• Qualified Ex-Felons
• Qualified Veterans
• SSI Recipients

Many busy business owners miss out on this huge tax savings by failing to screen new employees and missing filing deadlines that occur within the first 4 weeks of employment. Don’t ever miss this deadline again and don’t continue to send your hard earned money to Washington.
