IRS Information about Self-Employment Tax Credits
We received the following notice from the IRS. Missionaries are considered to be self-employed. We recommend you speak to your tax advisor if you have questions about any self-employment-related items.
The IRS issued a warning to taxpayers following false information surfacing on social media about a non-existent “Self-Employment Tax Credit.” Misinformation is leading taxpayers to file false claims. These bad promoters claim the credit is offered to self-employed people and gig workers and suggest they may be entitled to upwards of $32,000 in payments. Credits for Sick Leave and Family Leave, a far more specialized and technical credit, is actually the underlying credit that is being discussed on social media instead of the “Self-Employment Tax Credit.” Many people do not qualify for this credit, and the IRS is carefully reviewing claims coming in under this provision so people filing claims do so at their own risk.
