In this video I discuss the Self Employed TAX CREDITS (Sick Leave Credit & Family Leave Credit). New and specific to your 2020 self employed tax return there are two new tax credits that you might be able to take advantage of - the Sick Leave Tax Credit & Family Leave Tax Credits - IRS Form 7202. These tax credits for self employed people are based on your Average Daily Revenue which can be calculated by looking at either your 2019 Schedule C OR your 2020 Schedule C - which you should have nearby if you've been applying for PPP Round 2 either as a 1st time applicant OR a 2nd time applicant.

What if your business in 2019 was only in business for the last 6 months of 2019. Would you still divide your revenue from line 31 by 260 to come up with the average daily revenue? Or would we divide line 31 by 130? Thank you

Hello and thx fir videos , May I Claim this ? I’m 1099 Nec , son turned 14 in nov 2020 , school virtual learning since March 15 2020 , school might open April 2021 , hoping. May I Claim the whole 260 days ?? Considering Thanksgiving break and Christmas break , or Just claim 260 days ? 😘Thk you sir!

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@MF 777 - Hello! The 260 day number is fixed and only needed in the calculation of your average daily revenue for these calculations. I’m not sure how the virtual learning component will play a factor into your family/sick leave credits...were there any days over the summer that they weren’t in school / day care for you to be able to use? The sick leave is only 10 days and they do not need to be consecutive...same with family leave - it’s up to 50 days and they don’t have to be consecutive. Probably a good idea to claim these credits using different days - meaning not counting the sick days and family leave days on the same day. Hope that helps! Thanks for checking out the video and learning about this topic. Cheers!

Your channel deserves so much more attention, I’m a huge tax nerd and you know what you’re talking about. More importantly you know how to explain it 😂😂

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Unorthodox Savings - Thanks Joe! Really appreciate the kind words man...yeah I’m hoping more people watch your channel or mine and become financially aware of their decisions/actions/behaviors and taxes play a huge role in that. My grandfather moved to America after leaving Germany and he joined the Army to become a citizen...he then started as a laborer for a pool construction company and eventually started his own pool construction company. My mother was the first to be born in America and as a young man, I remember my grandfather asking everyone at dinner (restaurant) if they “wanted to build a pool”...and I never knew why. Now as an adult it makes complete sense...because of the meal tax write off. Lol. ...sadly though, he passed away many years ago and his legacy was his family (which we are incredibly grateful). My three brothers and I have learned from his experience and are all on track to retire comfortably and with goals of leaving a financial legacy for generations to come. So that’s part of what inspires me with each contribution and dollar saved. (Sorry for the long story! Ha!). Appreciate you man. 👊🏻👊🏻

In southern Arkansas all us Markle's are known as radiator men.... Unfortunately I'm horrible at doing things like taxes and wen to one of the only tax people in our small town and told them kinda what you said in your video about the 7202 ( I think that's the number ) and they acted like they never heard of it.... what would you suggest I do ? Or do you know anyone trustworthy that would be interested and capable of doing them and able to get me the most out of my tax return?

@@danielmarkle8823 - Mr. Radiator Man!!! Love it. Yeah, my brothers and I are very grateful for the family legacy we carry on. Hey, no worries about taxes...you've found my channel now and clearly are comfortable searching RU-vid to gain more knowledge...so good job and I encourage you to continue that learning path you're on....your comfort will grow with time, each video watched, and each tax season. The more you know the better you'll feel and the more confident you'll become. Yes, you will have to pay taxes on that PUA income - so hope you didn't spend all of it and carved some out for taxes...or at least can get some tax credit assistance through these two tax credits. My girls are around the same age as your daughter...at 6 years old I imagine she's in Kindergarten or 1st grade and likely her school shut down as I mentioned in the video...so at a minimum I suspect you'll be getting that tax credit. Sorry to hear your local tax person isn't up to date with new legislation and keeping up with the new events/changes for this tax season...bummer. You can either work with them if they are the only one in your area or try an online tax filing service - there are many. Most of the online ones walk you through several steps to help you maximize your return. I am not a licensed CPA - I was simply a Financial Advisor for 8+ years, Finance/Real Estate double major at college, and am a Tax-Nerd for stuff like this. You're welcome to check out some of the links in the videos if you'd like to chat - I intentionally don't mention them in the videos because I feel like I've been in sales for the past 15+ years and the last thing I want is to come across as salesy in the videos, but I am available for those interested. You should edit your comment and delete your email address (in my opinion)...I've always taken my clients' privacy very seriously and I wouldn't want my personal email floating around like that. Anyway, I appreciate you boss! Cheers!

Hi 😊 , thanks for your oh so informative videos. So i had regular W2 wages in 2020 and very little self employed income , 2019 i did have self employed income with a 1009misc. I plan on claiming the 7202 with my 2019 self employed income, as per the rules this sounds like i qualify , just making sure i dont miss out on any credits this year.

However, the additional remark on the IRS website also mentions being 'unable to telework' - so depending on your business industry/structure/clients/etc you may or may not have been able to telework.

@deannabazan1163 3 года назад

First, let me say I enjoyed your video, very informative! I have a question though, I have a bookkeeping business. You mentioned that if I could work at home the credit wouldn't apply to me. The part that stumps me is that technically I could work virtual or at home, the problem is I lost so much business I had to claim unemployment. How does that work?

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Deanna Bazan - Thank you for your feedback and watching the video! Glad you thought it was informative. Your question is a really good one. I was simply using the information pulled directly from IRS website / rules...here's the link to one of the many pages I read while researching the video... www.irs.gov/newsroom/covid-19-related-tax-credits-for-paid-leave-provided-by-small-and-midsize-businesses-faqs Here's the quote, "...(which for purposes of these rules, includes telework)." There was another CPA that commented on either this video or another one that had mentioned that this was another typical government handout...from my perspective, I think there is some gray area here and on one hand you 'could work' from home, but on the other hand you 'couldn't telework' because all the business went away. I would imagine there are many in this situation and without further clarification from IRS it appears to me that some people will blur the lines and 'tell the story how it best suits them' in order to get this tax credit. I think your claim that you couldn't telework could be justified if you lost all your clients / business and was unable to work to find new clients to help - even if that means that you 'could telework' you couldn't find the clients that would hire you to do so....therefore making you unable to telework. IDK...just trying to come up with a justifiable reason that this tax credit would apply to you. Not sure if that helps...what are your thoughts? Appreciate you. Cheers!

Thanks for your help!

Yes, if your 2020 Schedule C is bigger than 2019 then I would use that one for sure!

i have been trying to populate the 7202 and are confused as to what part of the form pertains to me and my grandchildren, i meet all of the qualification for both credits and not only was i self quarantined but my grandchildren were all sick at different times of the year between 20 and 21 i missed the deadline for 20 so my question is where it askes for self employment income for 21 do i fill out all parts of the 7202 or just page two and where do i insert my net earnings

@tiffanypina5385 3 года назад

Hi K. Scholl, so to make sure it is correct to claim this credit even if you worked part of the year and collect unemployment? Also, what about if you did not work at all just collected unemployment the entire time? of course using 2019 Schedule C. Thank You!!

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Tiffany Pina - Hi! Thank you for investing in your own knowledge by watching this video - good on you! Yeah, so the legislation that was passed on Dec. 27th, 2020 that extended these tax credits also mentioned being able to use 2020 OR 2019 revenues from your Schedule C...if there is one thing we can be grateful for that the law makers got right - it was recognizing that many people’s 2020 revenue amounts were obviously going to be less than 2019’s numbers due to everything that happened. So, yes, you can use your 2019 Schedule C (as am I). You will have to pay taxes on your unemployment income, but that is separate from your Schedule C earned income which is used to calculate your Avg Daily Revenue for these tax credits. Please feel welcome to confirm with your local CPA. Would love for you to subscribe if you haven’t already. Thanks! Appreciate you. Cheers!

Can you elaborate on what qualifies one for the family leave tax credit? Are you able to expand on this more? Maybe give some additional examples or scenarios of how you can qualify? Would my kids have had to be attending school full-time prior? Would the work that I do at home as an independent contractor have to come to a complete halt while taking care of the kids in order to qualify? Seems like there are some gray areas. I'm just trying to know more definitively if this applies to me or not?? Thanks!

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Kris Dorner - Sure man...I'll give it my best shot...here you go... Can you elaborate on what qualifies one for the family leave tax credit? Yes. Are you able to expand on this more? Sure. Maybe give some additional examples or scenarios of how you can qualify? Everyone's situation is different...this video and the knowledge shared is geared towards those that are self employed - so this would only apply to those that own a small business or generate their income/revenue from being self employed...which could be neither spouse, one spouse, or both spouses...and it would only apply to that spouse's income....my wife is W-2 and I'm self employed...so for us this can only be used to offset the tax burden created from my self employment income and not my wife's W-2 income. Would my kids have had to be attending school full-time prior? No. Doesn't matter if they were part time or full time in school...if their school shut down or if their daycare facility closed AND you had to provide care for the kids (instead of being able to work/telework) then this applies to you. Would the work that I do at home as an independent contractor have to come to a complete halt while taking care of the kids in order to qualify? 'Complete halt' - no - but you likely generated less revenue...and the 10 days (sick leave)...and the 50 days (family leave) DO NOT have to be consecutive...so take the time to look over your calendar to see when each of these apply based on the date time frames shared in the video of April 1st 2020 - March 31st 2021. In my personal situation the schools had their normal Spring Break and then never opened up the school again for weeks...then they did virtual learning...and the day care we send them to for summer time camps was closed and we did not have much choice other than to keep them home all summer...thus preventing me from working or being able to telework for many days (again - doesn't have to be consecutive)...so look at what days those were for you (if any) and follow the formula to calculate the tax credit. Seems like there are some gray areas - yes, there are some gray areas. Best course of action is to do what you're doing...watch videos, read articles, research, learn...and work with a CPA to make sure you are following within the letter of the law. Hope my response was somewhat helpful...I don't always have the time for longer responses like this (sorry for the week long delay) so if you like please feel welcome to schedule a call and we could knock out some questions in 10 or 15 minutes. Lots of good info out there though already and a quality CPA will help guide you as well...I'm happy to help if I can.

In 2019, I made $7,000 (for the entire year) with my business as I was just starting out... I filed $7,000 gross income on my 2019 taxes. From January 2020 to March 1, 2020 I grossed $12,500, business was starting to progress, and then covid happened and shut everything down and I had to file unemployment as a independent contractor/gig worker cause the businesses I had contracts with closed down. So from March 2020 to December 2020... I was on unemployment, but within that time frame I had covid, then I got over it... and my sister had it, and I had to care for her. I haven't filed taxes yet for 2020 or 2021 I was going to do so next week, and someone was telling me about this credit, that I didn't know about. My question would I still be able to file for this credit only making little money? and had collected unemployment?

@stephaniebollier755 3 года назад

Thank you for the very informative video! So quick question if u don’t mind. If I were caring for a child that was quarantined multiple times from august-December of 2020 can those sick leave days be split up for I was just missing one day a week each time? So 2 days each time she was Quarantined I had to stay home with her and the other days dad did. This happened 3 separate times so 6 days total but different weeks and months. Hope that wasn’t to confusing.

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Stephanie Bollier - Not confusing at all. Great news, nope...they don’t need to be consecutive days and yes you can list up to 10 days. There is, however, a different maximum amount allowed depending on if you were self-quarantining yourself OR if you were caring for someone else. If you’re quarantined yourself the daily max is $511, but if you’re caring for another person I believe it is a $200/day max....which is the same daily max for the family leave credit. Cant claim sick leave credit & family leave credit for the same day. So, for example, my daughters’ school closed and I had to care for them basically from last April 1st until they started school back up in Aug...so I’ll be looking over which 50 days I claim for family leave credit...I’ll also be claiming the sick leave credit, but the max for that is only 10 days and they have to be a different 10 days than the ones claimed for family leave credit. Hope that example helps. Hey, thanks for taking the time to check out the video...appreciate you. Cheers!

My gut tells me that it is for U.S. based tax payers, but I am not 100% sure if that is true or if there is no real clear definition on this. To me, the family leave tax credit is more applicable to U.S. based tax payers because it is directly associated to local schools & day care facilities closing down. Check with a licensed CPA for more clarification would be my suggestion. Hey though, I appreciate you taking the time to check out this video. Cheers!

Surround yourself with the right people, read a few good books (or audio books), and keep at it...you’ll find more success with patience and time.

Personally, I haven't filed with TurboTax in a very long time...so I do not have a definitive answer for you on that. However, Intuit (who owns TurboTax) is a very smart company and I would be shocked if they did not allow you to get these credits by e-filing...there should be an option for you to select or a box to check....I'll have to look into that somehow. Regarding your other questions of how to claim it - I go over those in the video and also have links to IRS website in description of the video. The tax credits are tied to your self employment income...so I imagine the TurboTax process would follow the normal protocols of someone filing a tax return that has self employment income.

Thank you for making this very informative video and thank you for replying to all the comments. My question is, I don’t understand how people qualify for this tax credit, if we were receiving PUA unemployment from March 2020 to March 2021 as self employed, because we were not working at all. Can you please explain more on this? For example while I was on PUA last year I came in contact to a friend of mine right after 1 day he got his positive corona result, and ended up spending the whole day with him, because he did not tell me about his diagnosis. And he ended up telling me the next day. After that I was doing my best to quarantine myself from my family for the next two weeks. So how can this scenario connect with form 7202 qualification requirement? Thanks.

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Minasse Kebede - Thank you so much for your kind words & I'm glad you found value in the video. I do truly enjoy responding to comments/questions and helping out where I can. By law, you do have to pay taxes on PUA on your 2020 tax return. However, PUA income is not the same as generating revenue as a self employed individual. Not all, but most self employed individuals are sole proprietors/independent contractors...and the net business income you generate can be found on EITHER your 2019 Schedule C OR your 2020 Schedule C (line 31). Based on the legislation that was passed on December 27th, you can use your 2020 Schedule C or your 2019 Schedule C to calculate your Average Daily Revenue in order to find how much of these tax credits you qualify for. Regarding your situation and how you substantiate your eligibility (how you prove that you should get one of these tax credits) you have to follow the steps I outlined in the video. Click this link here and read sections 60 - 69, but specifically section #68... www.irs.gov/newsroom/special-issues-for-employees#specific-provisions-related-self-employed-individuals You'll then click this link (also found within section #68 from the link above)... www.irs.gov/newsroom/how-should-an-employer-substantiate-eligibility-for-tax-credits-for-qualified-leave-wages From the way I read these instructions, as a self employed person with no employees, you'll have to write a letter to yourself answering questions #1-4 from that link. That statement/documentation will likely need to be filed with your 2020 tax return. In your situation, since you were self quarantining from exposure to a person that tested positive, then I presume those two weeks are the weeks you'll note as when you were self quarantining. If you saw a healthcare professional then you'll note them on your documentation. If not, then my rhetorical question back to you is....which city/county/state/federal governmental agency instructed you to self-quarantine in the event you had to due to being exposed? I could be wrong here, but I thought nearly every municipality was telling people to "stay home" and not work unless you were an essential worker. A CPA in your area can confirm/qualify my remarks, but that is my understanding of the situation. (that's my CYA response - lol). Wow, ok, super long response to your question...was that at all helpful? Appreciate you.

Hi! I already filed my taxes with Turbo Tax. I tried E-Filing, but it did not let me since I was trying to file with 7202. I ended up removing the form, but now the more that I think about it, I really want this credit and believe that I deserve it. How would I go about claiming it or amending my taxes if the IRS has already accepted my return? They have not processed a return yet.

@BrianMcGee 3 года назад

1 clarifying point, I earn W2 wages full time as well as 1099 income from freelance design work. My W2 employer basically shut down in April and May of 2020 (while still paying us). I also lost my 1099 income for those months. Am I eligible for this credit?

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Brian McGee - Hey man! Dang, terribly sorry to hear of the challenges of loosing the 1099 income for those months. Frustrating. In your comment you did not mention anything about being married or caring for a child...so based on that I can't say that you're eligible for the family leave credit because you have to have cared for someone in order to be considered for that 'up to' $10,000 credit. As far as the sick leave credit, if you had to self quarantine or qualify for the credit any other way then you could be eligible for it...since you already turned in your return for processing then yeah man you'll have to amend your return after the dust settles...which is a slow paper-based process...I've had to do it before...it requires significant patience. Lastly, you're only able to use your 1099 Schedule C income for the calculation of these credits - not your W-2...and you can use 2019's Schedule C line 31 OR your 2020 Schedule C line 31....whichever is higher is the one I'd use.

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Sidney Williams - Hey, thanks for checking out the video! Please confirm this with a professional CPA in your area, but the way I understand it....you would use your wages/salary as the figure you divide by 260 to arrive at your average daily revenue. I say this because the money you distribute to yourself (to avoid super high self employment tax) is typically done through a K-1 distribution of profit....which is not taxed the same as wages earned. On one hand, this sucks because your 'reasonable wage' is not your full/real income, but on the other hand you're still getting some tax relief by filing as an S-Corp and not paying full self employment tax on all your revenue. That is how I understand it...does that make sense to you? Let me know if I'm off on my response at all or if you have more questions. Appreciate you....cheers!

@TEMI A - Hi! So sorry to hear you had to resign from your job. Hope you are ok and doing well to get by. If you don’t have any revenue from your self employer side hustle then you cannot use either of these credits. They are for employers or the self employed. If you did have a W-2 job where you received some sick and family leave income AND you did have side hustle 1099 income then your amount of tax credits for your side hustle income would be reduced by the amounts you’ve already received and the IRS has specific examples of this on their website...the IRS links in the description should take you to those pages and you can read them. However, as I said if you have no revenue from your 1099 side hustle then it is my understanding that you cannot get either of these tax credits.

Here is the IRS link to the instructions for Form 7202... www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i7202.pdf ...look at bottom right hand corner of second page.

When you do hire someone...ask a ton of questions so you get the most bang for your buck and perhaps you can apply the knowledge gained to future year’s tax returns when you file on your own again.

So you have to file by mail to receive this credit? Correct?

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Kelsey Pruitt - Hi, Kelsey! Thanks for checking out this video and researching the topic. Good job! No, it is my understanding that you can still e-file and receive this credit. However, if the Form 7202 is still in it's 'draft version' then you might not be able to finish your return until the IRS finishes Form 7202. I haven't checked, but I did hear other people had their tax returns already completed and were simply waiting on this form to submit and file their return. Hope that helps! Appreciate you checking out the video and channel...there may be a few other videos of interest to you if you scroll through (if you have time). Have a great day! Cheers!

@Alex & Stanley Demosthene - Hey, thanks for checking out the video! I'm thankful you took the time to do that. You're able to use 2019 figures OR 2020. I'm not sure why it's asking for 2019 SE forms. Here is the link directly to IRS website that speaks specifically about this topic... www.irs.gov/newsroom/special-issues-for-employees#specific-provisions-related-self-employed-individuals Hope that helps! Personally speaking, despite my confidence in the tax/accounting knowledge I have, I have found value in working with a CPA each year for the past 10+ years. If your situation isn't complicated then TurboTax is awesome and easy, but there may be value in working with someone in your area if you can't get this worked out through TurboTax.

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@@drake3934 - Yeah, my pleasure. TBH, I think this is the grey area in the sick leave tax credit. The Family leave - pretty straight forward with schools and daycares shutting down across the country nearly. The Sick Leave credit seems a little open to interpretation. The way I read into it is....if your local city/county/state/municipality told you to stay home if you're experiencing symptoms and to 'self quarantine for two weeks' then I think you can just list your municipality as the governing body that told you to stay home...which in theory should suffice. The, of course if people actually saw a healthcare provider then you would list them in your statement/letter that would go along with this document & your tax return. Just my opinion, but that's how I'm reading into it. Hey, thanks for checking out the channel...hope there are a few more videos that you find helpful. Cheers boss!

@Jason Jerome - My plan is to keep it short and simple. I'm going to list each specific date for which I was unable to work (or telework) for both the Sick Leave Tax Credit & another list of dates for the Family Leave Tax Credit. It's my understanding that you cannot use the same date for both sick & family leave credits - so in looking over your situation you'll need to analyze that on your own. I know it says "letter" and I mentioned letter in the video, but I am thinking it is more of a statement and then you'll have to note your answer to each of the 1-4 bulleted items that I mentioned in the video from the IRS website. Your CPA or TurboTax will help you with the correct form (I think I have links in the video description as well). I'm planning on using Microsoft Word or Excel as the document I'll be typing up. Hope that helps. Hey, appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch the video. Thanks! Cheers.

@babybagleys 3 года назад

Are we able to claim this credit if the Governor shut down our business as non-essential for a Month? Or only if we were sick? We had work, just weren’t allowed to. We didn’t get unemployment.

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@babybagleys - The Sick Leave Credit has to do with you being sick yourself, you self quarantining yourself, OR if you had to care for another individual that was sick. The Family Leave Credit has nothing to do with being sick and is more about you needing to care for a dependent / your child and being unable to work or telework because of that. So, during the month that you were shut down, if you got sick or had to self quarantine because you thought you had come in contact with someone that was sick then it is possible for you to get the credit. As you can see...there is some grey area here. Hey, appreciate you taking the time to research this topic and watch the video...hope there are others on my channel that may be of interest to you.

You only mention Schedule C reported income, what about us using Schedule E?

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

@Jim Ross - Hey Jim! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the video - thank you for that. Yes, you are correct I focused primarily on self employed people with Schedule C revenue in this video. It is my understanding that Schedule E revenue is not able to be used for the average daily revenue calculation. I've got a few thoughts...here you go... 1 - I'm not a CPA and consulting with one for your specific situation may be in your best interest. 2 - I personally have Schedule E income from 2019 as well and will not be using that for the purpose of calculating my average daily revenue...furthermore...it is my understanding that Schedule E is primarily used to report 'passive' income - for example rental income you receive because you own rental property or a royalty payment you receive...and Schedule C is used to report self employment business income where you earn wages (vs passive revenue). 3 - Here is a link I found directly to IRS website on this matter: www.irs.gov/newsroom/special-issues-for-employees#specific-provisions-related-self-employed-individuals ...#62.... How is the "average daily self-employment income" for an eligible self-employed individual calculated? Average daily self-employment income is an amount equal to the net earnings from self-employment for the taxable year divided by 260. A taxpayer’s net earnings from self-employment are based on the gross income that he or she derives from the taxpayer’s trade or business minus ordinary and necessary trade or business expenses. 4 - If you are an employer with employees then there are other documents/steps you'll have to take and this particular video did not focus on that and was primarily focused on self employed individuals who file their taxes as sole prop/1099/independent contractors. ...long answer...hope some of that helps you!

@carlel121 3 года назад

How about S Corp?

@Financial_Awareness 3 года назад

Carle L - Thanks for checking out the video. I am glad you're researching this and hope you can take advantage of these tax credits. Yeah, I did focus more on Sole Prop., 1099, and independent contractor for this video...and less on S-Corp self employed people. Please confirm this with your CPA, but the way I understand how these tax credits work for those who file as an S-Corp are as follows...the average daily revenue is a reflection of the 'qualified leave wages' earned and brought in...which for someone who is self employed and files as an S-Corp that would be the salary you pay yourself. Because your K-1 distributions aren't considered wages and are considered a distribution of profit from your business. Even though you and I know that you, as someone that is self employed, generated all that revenue yourself, but you are able to avoid additional taxes by having a decent portion of your revenue be distributed as profit as opposed to wages. So it's my understanding that you would divide your S-Corp salary that you pay yourself by 260 to arrive at your average daily revenue for the purpose of this calculation. You'll need to review your Form 941 as part of this process and here is a link to IRS website that can detail this info a little more... www.irs.gov/newsroom/how-to-claim-the-credits Sorry for the long response.
