What is the Work Opportunity Tax Credit?

The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) is a federal program incentivizing businesses to hire from certain groups facing employment barriers, offering a tax credit of up to $9,600 per eligible new hire.


WOTC is a permanent reduction in income tax liability, not just a deferral. To claim the incentives from this credit, companies must apply within 28 days of an employee's start date, making it a critical function of HR departments. HRlogics streamlines this process, ensuring your business effectively captures these credits.

What are the Target Groups for WOTC?

Harness the full potential of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) by hiring from a diverse range of talent pools. HRlogics' platform makes it simple to identify and hire individuals from WOTC-targeted groups, optimizing your eligibility for valuable tax credits while enriching your workforce. These key groups include:

  • Unemployed & disabled veterans
  • Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients
  • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients 
  • Vocational rehabilitation referrals
  • Long-term unemployed
