Recover What You Lost and Build Toward the Future with $32,220 in SETC Credits.

As a contractor or home repair specialist, your hard work quite literally builds communities. When the pandemic struck, though, supply chains faltered, projects stalled, and client demand fell — leaving millions of contractors and small businesses without their regular income streams.

What many in the contractors and self-employed crews don’t realize is that there’s a unique government program available to help self-employed workers rebuild their businesses beyond pre-pandemic levels. Through this program, known as the Self-Employed Tax Credit (SETC), self-employed contractors and small business owners are eligible for up to $32,220 in tax credits. 

These funds go beyond just filling the gaps — they’re an opportunity to invest in your business’s future. Whether it’s covering the rising cost of materials, investing in digital transformation, or securing resources to take on new projects, this tax credit can make a lasting impact. It’s about not just bouncing back — it’s about building a stronger foundation for the road ahead for self-employed workers and their communities.

What is SETC?

The SETC Program provides a tax credit for self-employed individuals impacted by qualified COVID-19 disruptions, as outlined in the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). As part of these programs, the U.S. government has set aside millions in tax credits for self-employed individuals like you who were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unfortunately, many accountants did not (and still do not) know this program exists. So, when we discovered this hidden treasure in 2023, we decided to change it. Since then, we’ve partnered with Anchor Accounting Services to create a seamless experience to return over $500 million to qualified self-employed professionals, including independent contractors, home repair specialists, and small construction business owners.

We are one of the only self-employed communities in the country that is returning this money to its rightful owners. This isn't just any money; it's YOUR money, already earmarked by the government, waiting for you to claim. If unclaimed, these funds — your tax dollars — simply go back into the government's coffers.
