Form 8994 is a new form that
will be used to claim the new employer credit for paid family and
medical leave for wages paid in tax years beginning after December
2017. Because this new credit is a general business credit, the
credit for filers who are not partnerships or S corporations will
flow to Form 3800 where these filers will figure their tax
liability limitation. The credit is scheduled to expire for wages
paid in tax years beginning after 2019 [P.L. 115-97, section 13403;
IRC 45S].
