Provisions to help businesses survive during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic include a new employee retention tax credit; deferral of the employer portion of payments of certain payroll taxes; a modification of the net operating loss rules by providing a five-year carryback and temporarily removing the 80% limitation for carryforwards and changes to the business interest deduction.
