Like so many small businesses on Long Island, a family owned Italian food distributor out of West Sayville has been struggling since the start of the pandemic. After applying for federal assistance, and hearing nothing in return from the IRS, the owners reached out to my office. We were able to find out that the IRS mistakenly believed this business did not qualify for the aid it was requesting. Once the error was uncovered, this West Sayville business received nearly $150,000 in IRS Employee Retention Credits which they were owed.
