Posted on May 23, 2025   |   By   |   Posted in ERC Faqs

Many businesses that filed legitimate ERC claims are still waiting. The IRS backlog remains monstrous – with vast numbers of claims sitting around, gathering dust, remaining unprocessed. President Trump has promised to cut Two Trillion dollars in federal spending. Will that include an executive order ending ERC? The Department of Government Efficiency is already laying off some essential consumer advocates. You need to hurry while some of these advocates still remain.

Don’t take the chance of never receiving your ERC money. Take advantage of a program that may quickly put your ERC check, plus interest, in your hand, while it is still available.

If your refund hasn’t been issued, it may never be issued—unless you take steps now.

ERC Expediting Services from Moskowitz LLP

Moskowitz LLP offers targeted legal and procedural services for clients experiencing delays in ERC refund processing. Our team takes proactive steps to help advance eligible claims through appropriate channels.

Here’s how we may be able to assist:

  1. Request for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) Assistance: The Taxpayer Advocate Service is an independent organization within the IRS that helps resolve delays causing financial hardship. When appropriate, we prepare and submit TAS requests on behalf of clients whose refunds have been unreasonably delayed. TAS reports directly to Congress and takes their mission very seriously.
  2. Congressional Inquiry Support: Members of Congress can initiate inquiries to the IRS when constituents experience excessive delays. We work with their elected officials to encourage review and action from the IRS.
  3. Refund Litigation: Litigation can prompt the IRS to resolve outstanding matters and may provide an avenue to recover legal fees. Moskowitz LLP evaluates these situations on a case-by-case basis.

Why Timing Matters

We want to represent you now in case an executive action eliminates the ERC program, in which case you’ll lose your payment and the interest on your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my ERC refund delayed?

The IRS halted processing of new ERC claims in 2023 due to concerns about fraud and eligibility. Even eligible claims have experienced significant delays. The backlog continues into 2025.

What is the Taxpayer Advocate Service, and how can it help?

TAS is an independent body within the IRS that assists taxpayers whose cases have been stalled or mishandled and directly reports to Congress. TAS can order that your ERC claim, plus interest, is processed next.

How does a Congressional Inquiry work?

Congressional representatives can submit a formal inquiry to the IRS regarding delayed ERC claims.

What does refund litigation involve?

A refund lawsuit is a formal legal process filed in federal court. It may be used when administrative options have been exhausted or delayed beyond acceptable timeframes.

Is the ERC really going away?

It’s unclear. However, the possibility of program termination by executive order is real. This creates additional urgency for those with unresolved claims.
