In restaurants, retail, healthcare, and hospitality, frequent hiring is often a necessity, and every new hire is a chance to earn a federal tax credit worth $1,200 to $9,600 per eligible employee. With enough qualifying hires, those credits add up quickly, turning one of your biggest operational headaches into real savings.
WOTC screening usually means extra forms, extra systems, and paperwork that’s easy to miss during a busy hiring week. With TimeForge, new hires complete a 90-second questionnaire as part of their normal onboarding, so every eligible employee is identified from day one without adding a single step for your managers.
Qualifying for a credit is only the beginning. Our tax credit specialists validate each survey, prepare and submit applications to state workforce agencies, follow up on pending certifications, and archives every certificate for substantiation, so your team claims the credits without ever touching the paperwork.
You can’t manage what you can’t see. Real-time dashboards let you monitor screening performance, compare results by location, and track pending certifications, so multi-location operators always know exactly what their hiring is earning them.
Screening surveys touch sensitive employee information, and your people deserve to know it’s protected. All data moves through encrypted, compliant exchanges backed by SOC 2 and ISO 27001 standards, keeping both your business and your employees’ privacy safe.
For businesses that meet certain thresholds, WOTC credits more than cover the cost of TimeForge. And when we scope the WOTC solution with you, we can also assess your eligibility for state hiring incentives, Federal Empowerment Zone credits, and training reimbursements. It’s a rare line item that puts money back on your P&L instead of taking it off.
WOTC is a federal tax credit for employers who hire people from groups that often face barriers to employment — like veterans, SNAP or TANF recipients, and the long-term unemployed. When you hire an eligible worker, you can earn a credit against your federal income taxes, worth anywhere from $1,200 to $9,600 per qualifying employee depending on their category and hours worked.
Each eligible hire is worth between $1,200 and $9,600, depending on the employee’s target group, the hours they work, and the wages they earn. In high-volume, high-turnover industries like restaurants, retail, and healthcare, those credits add up quickly across every location — often enough to offset the cost of TimeForge and then some.
New hires complete a quick 90-second questionnaire as part of their normal TimeForge onboarding — online or by mobile. There are no extra forms for your managers to chase and no separate system to log into. Every eligible employee is identified automatically from day one.
No. That’s the point. The screening lives inside the onboarding flow your team already uses, and tax credit specialists handle the filings, follow-ups, and certifications from there. Your managers never touch the paperwork.
Our tax credit specialists do. They validate each survey, prepare and submit applications to state workforce agencies, follow up on pending certifications, and archive every certificate for your records. You claim the credits without managing a single deadline yourself.
