Tax Credit Calculator
Starting in 2010, up to 4 million small businesses that offer healthcare coverage to their employees may be eligible for a tax credit. Fill in the amounts below to find out what your tax credit will be.
To qualify, a small business must:
- Have fewer than 25 full-time equivalent employees
- Pay average annual wages below $50,000 per FTE
- Contribute at least 50% of each employee's premium
Notes:
Owners are excluded, and should not be counted in number of employees, wages, or premium contribution amount.
Tax credits can't be larger than actual income tax liability..
This is a preliminary estimate, and is contingent upon accurate inputs for FTEs, average wages, and employer premium contribution as defined by the provisions of the healthcare legislation. See http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=220839,00.html for more information.
