  • Beginning with the first calendar quarter after December 31, 2019 an employer had gross receipts that were 50% less for the same calendar quarter then in the previous year;and
  • Ending with the calendar quarter following the first calendar quarter after gross receipts are 80% greater then the same calendar quarter in the prior year.
