Work Opportunity Tax Credit Extended

  

On January 3, 2013, the President signed into law the American Tax Payer Relief Act of 2012, which authorizes an extension of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) program, including the following:

• Continues authorization of all veteran target groups (including those implemented under the VOW to Hire Heroes Act) until December 31, 2013
• Retroactively reauthorizes all WOTC non-veteran target groups, from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2013
• Retroactively reauthorizes Empowerment Zones, which determines eligibility for the summer youth target group, from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2013
• Does not reauthorize the Recovery Act disconnected youth and Recovery Act unemployed veteran target groups.

  

The Employment & Training Administration will be issuing forthcoming guidance on the new legislation.
