Tip Credit USA announced the expansion of its FICA Tip Credit Free Assessment, offering food and beverage employers a streamlined, risk-free way to determine eligibility for a federal tax credit many businesses have never claimed.

The FICA Tip Credit has been available for more than thirty years and allows eligible employers to reclaim the FICA taxes paid on employee tips. Despite its longevity, most restaurants and food and beverage employers remain unaware of the credit or lack the time and resources needed to navigate the filing process.

As the deadline to claim 2022 FICA Tip Credit funds approaches, Tip Credit USA’s updated assessment provides timely, compliant support for businesses seeking to understand their eligibility and potential credit amount.

Through the Risk-Free FICA Tip Credit Assessment, businesses receive:

• A clear assessment of potential credit amounts

• Zero upfront costs

• CPA-led management of the claim from start to finish

• A process backed by a 100% compliance rate

• Payment only after the credit is received

Eligible businesses may file for the previous three tax years, increasing the potential financial benefit and making awareness and timely action especially important.

The expanded assessment offering was introduced in response to growing demand from business owners seeking reliable guidance as filing deadlines approach. Many food and beverage employers previously missed the opportunity to claim the credit due to lack of awareness, staffing constraints, or limited internal resources to manage the process independently.

To address these challenges, Tip Credit USA designed a streamlined, CPA-led solution that removes upfront costs and administrative burden while ensuring compliance throughout the filing process.

Tip Credit USA places a strong emphasis on listening to industry feedback and understanding the practical barriers facing business owners. Staffing shortages, time constraints, and uncertainty around tax credit programs have consistently been cited as the main reasons credits go unclaimed.

Having been in business for several years, Tip Credit Partners tax specialists have processed more than $1 billion in FICA Tip Credits, ERTC funds, and Visa/Mastercard settlements, handling each claim from start to finish. The company strives to ensure eligible food and beverage employers do not miss federal tax credits due to lack of awareness, time, or internal resources.

This approach has established Tip Credit USA as a transparent and compliance-focused partner in a market where business owners are often cautious of tax credit programs.
