Amount per quarter: Each employee has $10,000 in qualifying wages per quarter, and 70% of this amount is $7,000 per quarter. Amount per employee: Since Company A is eligible for the ERC for all the available quarters, each employee's quarterly credit is multiplied by 3, which equals $21,000 per employee for the year.
Credit amount The total ERC benefit per employee can be up to $26,000 ($5,000 in 2020 and $7,000 per quarter in 2021).
For 2021, the employee retention credit (ERC) is a quarterly tax credit against the employer's share of certain payroll taxes. The tax credit is 70% of the first $10,000 in wages per employee in each quarter of 2021. That means this credit is worth up to $7,000 per quarter and up to $28,000 per year, for each employee.
In addition to claiming tax credits for 2020, small businesses should consider their eligibility for the ERC in 2021. The ERC is now available for all four quarters of 2021, up to $7,000 per quarter.
Going forward, the only way to apply for the ERC is to file an amended Form 941X (Quarterly Federal Payroll Tax Return) for the quarters during which the company was an eligible employer.

How do I claim the ERC? (updated Sept. 14, 2023) A1. Eligible employers that didn't claim the credit when they filed their original employment tax return can claim the credit by filing an amended employment tax return.
