Business Relief Program Tax Information
As businesses close out their previous year and prepare to file tax documents, the Wyoming Business Council wants to remind all CARES Act funding recipients that any money received through the COVID-19 Business Relief Program is considered taxable income and should be included in tax filings. The State Auditor's Office has issued all applicable 2020 1099 forms and CARES grant recipients should have received a 1099-G for their awards. If you have any questions, please contact the State Auditor's Office at saowolfshelpdesk@wyo.gov.
Please Note: The State Auditor's Office and the Wyoming Business Council cannot provide any tax-related advice. Business Relief Program recipients with questions related to filing, claims, etc., should contact a tax professional.
