Congress will extend WOTC (they always do). Employers who keep screening will claim credits. Those who stopped? They'll lose thousands.
The program is paused, not dead. Here's the timeline.
WOTC authorization ended after Congress didn't renew
States accepting & holding forms. Keep screening!
Retroactive credits for 2026 hires who screened
📊 Historical fact: WOTC has been extended 13 times since 1996. Every hiatus ended with retroactive credits.

When WOTC expired, our HR team was ready to stop the 8850 process. WOTCFY convinced us to keep going. Now we have 47 forms ready to submit the moment Congress acts. That's potentially $112K in credits we almost lost.
