What is IRS Form 7200?


IRS Form 7200, (Advance Payment of Employer Credits Due to COVID-19) is used by qualifying employers to request an advance payment of the tax credits for qualified sick and qualified family leave wages, and the employee retention credit that they claim in their federal tax returns.

The eligible tax credits for a quarter usually are greater than the amount of employment tax deposits due by the employer for the quarter. In this case, the employer can file Form 7200 to request the advance payment from the IRS of the excess credits before filing the Employment Tax Return.

By filing Form 7200, qualifying employers can claim the advance payment on credits otherwise claim on the employment tax returns listed below.

  • Form 941, Employer’s QUARTERLY Federal Tax Return.
  • Form 941-PR, Planilla para la Declaración Federal TRIMESTRAL del Patrono.
  • Form 941-SS, Employer’s QUARTERLY Federal Tax Return (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands).
