1 CRS Report for Congress Received rough e CRS Web E Updated May 14, 1998 The Work Opportunity Tax Credit and e 105 Congress Linda Levine Specialist in Labor Economics Economics Division Summary The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) was initiated in e Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (P.L ). It is a temporary measure intended to encourage for-profit employers to hire members of specifically designated groups ought to experience recurring problems in e labor market. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (P.L ) modified e employment credit and extended it rough June 30, H.R would extend WOTC for 3 years, rough June 30, 2001; oer bills would increase e number of eligible groups, apply WOTC to e employment taxes of taxexempt organizations, and allow e credit against e alternative minimum tax. P.L also initiated a new credit, e Welfare-to-Work Tax Credit (WWTC), to promote employment of long-term welfare recipients. It is auorized to run rough April 30, In its FY1999 budget request, e Administration has proposed extending e WOTC and WWTC rough April 30, What is WOTC? WOTC is a selective hiring subsidy, at is, it is intended to encourage employers to hire members of prescribed groups. By eir very nature, selective hiring subsidies favor individuals from e prescribed groups over oer jobseekers. Members of ese groups are believed to be low skilled, such at eir productivity does not warrant employers paying em e going wage, which in turn results in e groups members having chronically low incomes or high unemployment rates. A subsidy in e instant case offered as a credit against an employer s federal income tax liability as opposed to a direct payment to an employer serves to narrow e gap between e productivity of ese individuals and e going wage for a particular job. WOTC is not an incremental subsidy, at is, firms do not have to increase e size of eir workforces in order to get e credit. Consequently, employers can claim e credit by hiring eligible group members to fill eier newly created or already existing positions. The availability of WOTC could us prompt some firms to deliberately Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress
2 CRS-2 displace ineligible employees in order to fill eir jobs wi eligible workers, or to favor eligible over ineligible job applicants when new positions are created or when vacant positions develop rough voluntary employee turnover. Some Members of Congress have been concerned about e prospect for displacement in light of ongoing efforts to move welfare recipients into jobs. 1 WOTC: Its Current Form Under WOTC as auorized by e Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (P.L ), for-profit employers were entitled to a credit against eir federal income tax liabilities for hiring members of 7 specifically designated groups. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (P.L ) added an eigh group and modified e definition of one group. It also shortened e retention period, changed e subsidy rate, and extended e temporary measure for 9 mons rough June 30, The amendments apply to eligible individuals hired after September 30, WOTC s eligible groups currently are as follows:! members of families receiving benefits under e Aid to Families wi Dependent Children (AFDC) or its successor (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, TANF) program for any 9-mon period ending during e 18-mon period ending on e hiring date; 2! qualified veterans who are members of families receiving benefits under a food stamp program under e Food Stamp Act of 1977 for at least a 3-mon period during e 15-mon period ending on e hiring date; 3! year olds who are members of families receiving food stamp benefits for e 6-mon period ending on e hiring date, or receiving benefits for at least 3 mons of e 5-mon period ending on e hiring date in e case of family members no longer eligible for assistance under section 6(o) of e Food Stamp Act of 1977;! high-risk you (i.e., year olds whose principal place of abode is an empowerment zone or an enterprise community); 1 For more information on displacement in e context of welfare reform, see: U.S. Library of Congress. Congressional Research Service. Welfare Reform and Subsidized Public Sector Jobs. CRS Report E, by Linda Levine. pp Members of families are only ose persons taken into account when determining eligibility for e AFDC or TANF program. Previously, group members had to have been receiving benefits for 9 consecutive mons. 3 Members of families are only ose persons taken into account when determining eligibility for a food stamp program under e Food Stamp Act of A qualified veteran is one who has served on active duty for more an 180 days or who has been discharged or released from active duty for a service-connected disability.
3 CRS-3! summer you (i.e., year olds hired for any 90-day period between May 1 and September 15 whose principal place of abode is an empowerment zone or an enterprise community);! Supplemental Security Income recipients who have received benefits for any mon ending wiin e 60-day period ending on e hiring date; 4 5! economically disadvantaged ex-felons wi hiring dates wiin 1 year of e last date of conviction or release from prison; and,! vocational rehabilitation referrals (i.e., individuals wi physical or mental disabilities at result in substantial handicaps to employment who have been referred to employers upon completion of or while receiving rehabilitative services under e Rehabilitation Act of 1973 or rough a program carried out under chapter 31 of title 38, United States Code). An employer can claim an income tax credit of 40% of e first $6,000 in wages paid to eligible group members (except summer you) during eir first year of employment, if e employees are retained for at least 400 hours. The subsidy rate is 25% for eligiblehires (except summer you) who remain on e payroll between 120 and 399 hours. Thus, e minimum retention period is 120 hours. 6 For summer you hires, e 25% or 40% subsidy rate is applied against e first $3,000 earned in any 90-day period between May 1 and September 15. The actual value of e credit to e employer could be less an $1,500-$2,400 per eligible worker (or $750-$1,200 per summer-you hire) depending on e firm s tax bracket. A business tax deduction for wages and salaries must be reduced by e amount of e credit as well. And, e credit cannot exceed 90% of a firm s annual income tax liability. But, if after certain oer nonrefundable credits have been taken, 90% of an employer s remaining income tax liability for e current year is less an e amount of WOTC, e excess can be carried back 3 years and carried forward 15 years. Local Employment Service (ES) offices are charged wi certifying e eligibility of jobseekers. This can occur in two different ways: (1) eier a firm must receive a written certification from e ES at a new-hire belongs to a WOTC group on or before e day e individual begins to work for e employer; or, (2) e employer must complete a prescreening notice (Form 8850) on or before e day e jobseeker is offered a position and en must submit e notice (signed by e employer and new-hire under penalties of perjury) to an ES office wiin 21 days after e new-hire begins to work for e 4 5 This is e group added by P.L Economically disadvantaged is defined as having an annualized family income of 70% or less of e lower living standard income level. 6 In WOTC s initial version, e minimum retention period was 400 hours or 180 days. The subsidy rate was 35%.
4 CRS-4 7 employer. If e ES rejects a firm s request for certification, e office must provide a written explanation of its decision to e employer. The ES issued 126,113 WOTC certifications to employers in FY1997. Most (60%) were for members of e AFDC/TANF group. Anoer 21% were for members of e group comprised of year olds in families receiving food stamps. The high-risk you and vocational rehabilitation groups each accounted for nearly 7% of e certifications. A little over 3% were for e ex-felon group. Slightly more an 1% of e certifications applied to members of e veterans group and slightly less an 1% to members of e summer you group. The great majority of WOTC s cost to e government comes from revenue forgone raer an from appropriated funds. According to e Administration s FY1999 budget documents, e revenue loss to e treasury associated wi P.L 's extension and 8 modification of WOTC could total $340 million between FY1999 and FY2003. In contrast, e Labor Department s appropriation for FY1998 (P.L ) earmarked $20 million for ES administration of e program. The same appropriation level has been requested for FY1999. Legislation Pending Before e 105 Congress As part of its FY1999 budget request, e Administration has proposed at WOTC and e Welfare-to-Work Tax Credit (WWTC) be extended rough April 30, It is estimated at e proposal to extend WOTC from June 30, 1998 rough April 30, 2000 could cost e treasury $778 million in revenue forgone between FY1999 and FY2003; and, to extend WWTC from April 30, 1999 rough April 30, 2000, $169 million over e 5-year period. On January 28, 1998, H.R was introduced. It would extend WOTC for 3 years, rough June 30, On April 30, 1998, H.R and S were introduced. The former would allow WOTC against e alternative minimum tax for years beginning after December 31, The latter would permit firms in certified economic dislocation areas to receive e credit for hiring qualified dislocated workers after December 31, Just before e close of e 105 Congress first session, e Community Employment Partnership Act of 1997 (H.R. 2995) was proposed. It would permit taxexempt organizations (excluding governmental units as well as agencies or instrumentalities of governmental units) to apply a modified version of WOTC against eir quarterly employment taxes. Instead of WOTC s 40% subsidy rate applicable to forprofit employers who retain eligible-hires at least 400 hours, H.R would substitute 7 Under WOTC s predecessor, e Targeted Jobs Tax Credit, e first meod was used infrequently. 8 The estimated revenue loss due to firms hiring long-term welfare recipients under e WWTC is $90 million between FY1999 and FY2003. For information on e WWTC, see: U.S. Library of Congress. Congressional Research Service. The Welfare-to-Work Tax Credit: A Fact Sheet. CRS Report E, by Linda Levine.
5 CRS-5 a 30% rate for tax-exempt employers; and, instead of WOTC s 25% rate applicable to taxable firms who retain eligible-hires between 120 and 399 hours, e bill would substitute a 20% rate for tax-exempt employers. Tax-exempt organizations who hire WOTC-eligibles could reduce eir quarterly employment tax payments by e amount of e subsidy ey expect to be entitled to claim during e calendar year. At year end, adjustments would be made to reflect e actual as opposed to estimated hours of work of eligible-hires during e calendar year, and consequently, actual as opposed to estimated reductions in prior quarterly employment tax payments. WOTC also is incorporated in legislation introduced earlier in e first session of e 105 Congress. Bills at focus on providing assistance to distressed communities would do such ings as expand WOTC s high-risk you and summer you groups to include individuals living in renewal communities (H.R. 1031/S. 432), add to e credit s eligible groups graduates of specialized academies located in education zones who are hired wiin 6 mons of graduation (H.R. 1512), and apply an increased subsidy rate of 50% to e wages of eligible-hires during eir first 3 years of employment (S. 23).
