Openforce Facilitates Millions in Tax Rebates for Independent Contractors
Innovative partnership yields financial gains for 1099 gig workers and independent contractors
The SETC is a specialized, non-repayable tax credit designed to support 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. Whether a self-employed business owner, a 1099 subcontractor, or a family-centric small business, the SETC can be a valuable resource to help bridge financial gaps caused by unforeseen disruptions.
Understanding the unique circumstances that self-employed individuals face, Openforce partnered with Gig Worker Solutions3, a Tech Professional Employer Organization (PEO) catering to gig workers, to ensure independent contractors can take advantage of this valuable opportunity. Their innovative solution simplifies the SETC process for contractors, ensuring they can navigate tax support effortlessly and maximize their tax credits.
Gig Worker Solutions, as a valued partner has played an instrumental role in enhancing the financial well-being of gig workers. Wendy Greenland, CEO of Openforce, highlighted, "Openforce remains steadfast in our commitment to empowering independent contractors. The achievement of millions in tax rebates is a successful result of our innovative approach. We aim to simplify the process for contractors, allowing them to focus on their core businesses. Gig Worker Solutions has been a valuable partner, providing user-friendly tools to help facilitate this mission."
Ryan Leggett, CEO of Gig Worker Solutions, added, "We are thrilled to play a key role in the success of independent contractors in the gig economy through our collaboration with Openforce. Our partnership aims to enhance the economic well-being of contractors, showcasing the positive impact of strategic collaborations in the ever-evolving landscape of the gig economy."
Amidst the pandemic, millions grappled with COVID-related challenges, including illness, symptoms, quarantine, and caregiving responsibilities. If you were self-employed in 2020 and 2021 and COVID-19 impacted your ability to work, the SETC was designed to be your safety net.
