In the US and USVI, the benefit is a credit equal to 40% of the first
$6,000 of Qualified Wages paid to each Eligible Employee.
The US Code provides that if a taxpayer does not claim the credit in
the current taxable year, the credit can be carryback for one-year and
forward for 20 years.
This credit was enacted in P.L.115-63, known as the "Disaster Tax
Relief and Airport and Airway Extension Act of 2017" of September 29,
2017.

Benefit Amount
The US Treasury determined the benefit applicable to Puerto Rico
taxpayers after an amended to the benefit introduced by Section 20201(b)
of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which provides that the credit will be
subject to the provisions of Section 280C(a) of the US Code.
Section 280C(a) of the US Code provides that no deduction shall be
allowed for that portion of the wages or salaries incurred for the taxable
year that equals the credit for the taxable year.
For resident employers of Puerto Rico, the US Treasury authorized that the
net benefit of the credit be distributed as a refundable credit in 2017.

Benefit Amount
According to the US Treasury, the net benefit of the
credit is 26% or 32% of the first $6,000 of Qualified
Salaries paid by the Eligible Employer to each Eligible
Employee.
The applicable percentage will be determined based on
the net income subject to normal tax of the Eligible
Employer.

for wages paid.

will compute separately the amount of the benefit. The
Qualified Wages used by a member of the controlled group
cannot be used by any other member.

• Wages paid without regard to whether the employee
performs any services or performs services at a different
place of employment than the principal place of
employments
• Accrued or paid wages for services performed by an
Eligible Employee at his principal place of employment,
after the impact of the hurricane but before significant

Wages paid by a third-party payer (including an employee
leasing company, a professional employer organization, or a
Certified Professional Employer Organization) to Eligible
Employees of an Eligible Employer are considered Qualified
Wages incurred by the Eligible Employer.
Only the Eligible Employer, and not the third-party payer,
can take into account such Qualified Wages in claiming the
Benefit.

If the principal business was rendered inoperable by
Hurricane María, the opening at the new location is not
treated as the resumption of operations at the employee’s
principal place of employment. Thus, the employee’s wage
payments made through December 31, 2017, are eligible for
the Benefit, because the business never resumed operations
at the employee’s work place.
Qualified Wages exclude any pay for disaster assistance.

Inoperable Business
![Page 29: EMPLOYEE RETENTION BENEFIT...Employees in Puerto Rico. However, in the case of US corporations, the entity cannot: •Claim the Employee Retention Tax Credit available in the US •Claim](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042709/5f4dd30fca4b0a435f278599/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
A business becomes inoperable when the trade or business of an
employer could not be carried out as a result of the hurricanes for
one or more of the following reasons:
• Structural damages to the business
• The business is physically inaccessible to employees or
customers
• The business could not receive raw materials or inventories
• Lack of utilities, such as electricity, water or communication
access, etc.
Inoperable Business
![Page 30: EMPLOYEE RETENTION BENEFIT...Employees in Puerto Rico. However, in the case of US corporations, the entity cannot: •Claim the Employee Retention Tax Credit available in the US •Claim](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042709/5f4dd30fca4b0a435f278599/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Can the employer claim the benefit if he eventually decides to close the
business? Yes
Example:
An employer owned a commercial establishment located in an area impacted
by Hurricane Maria. The establishment was rendered inoperable by the
disaster. The employer continued to pay wages to its employees. However
on November 15, 2017, decided not to rehabilitate the building in which the
business was located; and permanently laid off the employees as of
November 30, 2017. The employer paid salaries to its employees through
November 30, 2017.
In this case, the employer can claim the benefit with respect to all wages paid
from September 17 to November 30, 2018, up to $6,000 per eligible
employee.
Inoperable Business

Each employer should make a reasonable and good faith
interpretation of what significant means in relation to its
particular business.
The Significant Operations test applies to each principal place
of employment. Thus, it applies separately to each place of
employment.
Resumed

The following circumstances can be used as guidelines to
determine whether a business has not resumed Significant
Operations.
• If operations are unstable
• Lack of raw materials or inventory
• Instability of the utilities or communications services
• The business has not reached at least 80% of its
activities
