About The SETC Program
What is the Self-Employed Tax Credit (SETC)?
The SETC is a specialized tax credit designed to provide support to self-employed individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic. It acknowledges the unique challenges faced by those who work for themselves, especially during times of illness, caregiving responsibilities, quarantine, and related circumstances. This credit can be a valuable resource for eligible individuals to help bridge financial gaps caused by unforeseen disruptions.
Understanding the unique circumstances that self-employed individuals face, we've partnered with Anchor Accounting Service to ensure that you don't miss out on this invaluable opportunity. Whether you're a self-employed business owner (Schedule 'c'), or a 1099 subcontractor the SETC holds the potential to bridge the gap left by more traditional forms of support.
• Up to $32,220 per self employed or 1099 employee
• Advanced funding paid out in 10-15 days or less after IRS approval
• Available for 2020 and 2021 fiscal years
• Qualify with decreased revenue or COVID event
• SETC is a refundable tax credit
• If you earned more in 2020 than 2021, you may use that tax return instead
• The deadline to claim your benefit is April 14, 2025.
How much money can you get back?
You may be eligible for up to $32,220 in tax credits from 2020 & 2021
How do you know if you are eligible?
To qualify your business must have been negatively impacted in either of the following ways:
• Self-Employed Status: If you were self-employed in 2020 and/or 2021, you could potentially qualify for the SETC.
This includes sole proprietors who run businesses with employees, 1099 subcontractors, and single-member LLCs. If you filed a “Schedule C” on your federal tax returns for 2020 and/or 2021, you're on the right track.
• COVID Impacts: Whether you battled COVID, experienced COVID-like symptoms, needed to quarantine, underwent testing, or cared for a family member affected by the virus, the SETC could be your financial relief. If the closure of your child's school or daycare due to COVID restrictions forced you to stay home and impacted your work, we're here to help.
• Sub S or True S Corps / C Corps are not eligible for the SETC. This unique tax credit is exclusively available to business owners who filed a “Schedule C” in their federal tax returns for 2020 and/or 2021.

Who qualifies for the SETC program?
To qualify for SETC tax credits, you must have missed self-employment work due to COVID-related issues. If you were unable to work because of one of the following reasons, you may be eligible:

The amount you receive depends on your average daily self-employment income and the days you missed self-employed work due to COVID-related issues, including government quarantine orders, self-quarantine, COVID-19 symptoms, and seeking medical diagnosis.
The credit for the childcare portion is calculated by multiplying the number of days on leave and taking whichever amount is smaller:
• Your average daily self-employment income per year or: $511.
• The credit for missing self-employment work due to a personal COVID-related issue or due to taking care of another person is calculated by multiplying the number of days on leave and taking whichever amount is smaller:
• 2/3 of your average daily self-employment income or: $200.
