Form 5884-B (12-2010)

General Instructions
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code.

Purpose of Form
Use Form 5884-B to figure your new hire retention credit
for retained workers (defined later). The new hire retention
credit was enacted as part of the Hiring Incentives to
Restore Employment (HIRE) Act on March 18, 2010. You
may be able to claim this credit if you hired a qualified
employee (defined later) after February 3, 2010, and
before January 1, 2011, and the employee works for you
for at least 52 consecutive weeks. The credit is the
smaller of $1,000 or 6.2% of the employee's wages (as
defined for income tax withholding purposes) paid for the
52 consecutive week period. But you cannot claim the
credit if the employee's wages decreased significantly
during the second 26 weeks. The credit is claimed in the
tax year in which the first 52 consecutive week period
ends.
You cannot claim the new hire retention credit
unless the employee completes and signs Form
W-11, Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment
(HIRE) Act Employee Affidavit, or similar
statement under penalties of perjury and is otherwise a
qualified employee.
The new hire retention credit is part of the general
business credit claimed on Form 3800, General Business
Credit. No portion of the unused business credit
attributable to the new hire retention credit can be carried
back to any tax year beginning before March 18, 2010.
However, you may be able to carry the unused portion
forward. See the Instructions for Form 3800 for details.
Taxpayers, other than partnerships and S corporations,
whose only source of this credit is from a partnership or
an S corporation are not required to complete or file this
form. Instead, report this credit directly on Form 3800.

TIP

Definitions
Retained Worker
A “retained worker” is any qualified employee (defined
below):
• Who was employed by you for a period of not less than
52 consecutive weeks and
• Whose wages (as defined for income tax withholding
purposes) for the second 26 consecutive weeks of
employment are equal to at least 80% of the employee's
wages for the first 26 consecutive weeks of employment.
Qualified Employee
A “qualified employee” is an employee who:
• Begins employment with you after February 3, 2010, and
before January 1, 2011;
