What is the WOTC?
The Work Opportunity Tax Credit is a federal program that gives employers $2,400–$9,600 in tax credits for hiring people from certain groups — including those with felony records. Forgiveness identifies your eligible hires and handles all certification paperwork automatically.

"You Deserve This."

Forgiveness was built on one belief: that a person's worst moment should not define their entire life. Everyone deserves access to opportunity, dignity, and a real chance to build something.

That is why Forgiveness will always be free for people with records. No exceptions. No fine print. No compromises.
