1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: State New York and no metropolitan area (elsewhere in the State). Quarters: second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020), third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020), fourth quarter of 2020 (Oct. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020), first quarter of 2021 (Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021), second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021) and third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021). Options: the federal layer, agencies and boards, standing duties, group meetings and trade shows and the Service's fourteen sentences answered.

This report is a record of the governmental orders and related instruments that The COVID Project has retrieved, verified and indexed for the State, metropolitan area, industry and calendar quarters selected. Each instrument appears with its issuer, its number and title, its dates, the quarters in which it was in force, the functions of a business it reached, its operative words, its enforcement provision, a citation and an exhibit identifier. Every exhibit identifier resolves to the instrument's record at covidproject.com/library, and to the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit.

The report is assembled from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings, and it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It lists the instruments The COVID Project has verified and no others, so every count in it is a floor. It is not a filing, and it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit.

Every exhibit identifier in it resolves at covidproject.com/library/ followed by the identifier, and the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit/ followed by the identifier.

Disclaimer

The COVID Project is a free public reference. This report is generated from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings that The COVID Project has retrieved and indexed; it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it does not create any professional relationship, it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit or the amount of any credit, and it is not a count of every order that existed. The COVID Project sells nothing and represents no one. Errors in any record can be reported through covidproject.com/contact with the exhibit identifier, and corrections are recorded with their dates.

2. Summary of findings

For each quarter selected, this section states what was in force for this selection on the quarter's first and last days, in the words of the Library's own quarter-by-quarter record for the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators and the federal layer. Exhibit identifiers in parentheses name the instruments. The table that follows counts the instruments listed in section 5 by layer and quarter.

The federal layer of this report is the Library's two federal files: FED-A, the health, safety and transport layer, and FED-B, the commerce, travel, workplace and finance layer, including the orders of the federal courts those files hold. The ecosystem clusters and the federal agency clusters are listed in the Library's federal layer at covidproject.com/federal and are not part of this report's federal layer; a quarter page counts every federal-level instrument of the quarter across those clusters as well, so its figure is the larger of the two.

3. The statute and the test

An employer is an eligible employer for a calendar quarter under the governmental-orders test if

the operation of the trade or business described in clause (i) is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes) due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
CARES Act § 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 348; I.R.C. § 3134(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), 135 Stat. 4, 177

Congress enacted those words four times and never changed them. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of March 27, 2020 enacted the Suspension Clause at section 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 347-48, for wages paid after March 12, 2020 and before January 1, 2021 (§ 2301(m), 134 Stat. 351) (Ex. LAW-001). The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-260, div. EE, §§ 206-207, 134 Stat. 1182, 3059-65 (Dec. 27, 2020), extended the credit to wages paid before July 1, 2021 and raised its rate to 70 percent; neither section touched the clause (Ex. LAW-002).

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2, § 9651, 135 Stat. 4, 176 (Mar. 11, 2021), added section 3134 to the Internal Revenue Code, whose heading repeats the CARES Act title and whose Suspension Clause reappears word for word at 135 Stat. 177, for wages paid after June 30, 2021 (§ 3134(n), 135 Stat. 182) (Ex. LAW-003). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, § 80604, 135 Stat. 429, 1341 (Nov. 15, 2021), ended the credit for calendar quarters beginning after September 30, 2021, and left the third quarter of 2021 in place (Ex. LAW-004).

The clause has seven elements, taken in the statute's order: orders; from an appropriate governmental authority; limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes); due to COVID-19; the operation of the trade or business fully or partially suspended; during the calendar quarter; and due to those orders. The words "essential," "comparable operations," "telework," "customers," "voluntary," "more than nominal," "10 percent," "directed at," "jurisdiction over the employer," "proximate," "independent" and "sufficient" appear in none of the four enactments. The credit runs by calendar quarter; the six quarters the clause governs are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021.

The partial-suspension test and how this report applies it

In this report the Internal Revenue Service is the "Service," the Government as a litigant is the "United States," Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, is the "Notice," and the statutory text above is the "Suspension Clause." Tri-State is Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States, No. 2:25-cv-0181-TOR, ECF No. 38 (E.D. Wash. May 28, 2026), the one federal decision construing the clause's words. Doc. 44 is the United States' opposition and cross-motion for summary judgment in Stenson Tamaddon, LLC v. IRS, No. 2:24-cv-01123-SPL (D. Ariz. Jan. 6, 2025), ECF No. 44; Doc. 49 is the summary-judgment order in that case of June 20, 2025; and the Br. for Appellees is the United States' brief in the appeal, No. 25-4217 (9th Cir. Jan. 30, 2026).

The statute controls, and the Notice does not. The United States has told two federal courts so: the Notice "is merely guidance" and "lacks the force of law" (Doc. 44 at 19); "the United States is not arguing that the IRS interpretation has the force of law or is entitled to deference" (Doc. 44 at 31 & n.8); "[w]hether Notice 2021-20 exists or not, the statute will control whether a refund is warranted" (Doc. 44 at 24). The court held that "the Notice carries no force of law and is entitled to no deference" (Doc. 49 at 27) and that the ten percent figure "is not an exclusionary cut-off point, but rather a safe harbor" (Doc. 49 at 26). In the Ninth Circuit the United States called the Notice "nonbinding guidance," its ten percent provision "a quintessential safe harbor," and wrote that "[t]here is no question of deference here" (Br. for Appellees at 26, 37-38, 58).

"Fully or partially suspended" means what the words say. On definitions both parties agreed, Tri-State held: "a 'partial suspension' is a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business. The language is plain" (Tri-State at 8-9). The court refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant": "the plain language and ordinary meaning of partial and nominal do not suggest either of those interpretations" (Tri-State at 10-11). The Notice's ten percent rules are "only administrative guidance"; "the IRS Notice provides a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test" (Tri-State at 15-16). "Due to" means "because of," which "[b]oth Plaintiff and Defendant agree" (Tri-State at 17), and "the Court recognizes that 'due to' requires 'but-for' causation" (Tri-State at 19). The argument that the virus rather than the order caused the changes fails: "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" (Tri-State at 20-21).

This report applies the test in five steps, with the instruments the Library holds for your selection and no others. Step one, the order: the issuer, the instrument by number and title, its dates and its exhibit; the Service's own Q&A-10 treats "orders, proclamations, or decrees" as orders "without regard to the level of enforcement" (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-10, at 927-28). Step two, the function it reached: the part of the business the order governed, whether the customer-facing floor, the back of house, the office, the workforce, the supply chain or the customer base. Step three, the change it compelled: the operative words, quoted from the instrument, and the sanction behind them. Step four, the quarter: the days on which the instrument was in force, tested against its dates. Step five, the statute's answer: a function is a portion of the operation; a compelled change is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; but for the order no law required it; and on the definitions the United States agreed to, the operation was partially suspended during the quarter due to the order.

The statute does not ask whether the business was "essential" or stayed open: the Notice's own Q&A-17, Example 4, calls an open hospital under an elective-procedure order partially suspended (Q&A-17, at 930). It does not ask whether the business could telework: Q&A-15 finds a partial suspension wherever a workplace closure "causes the employer to suspend business operations for certain purposes, but not others" (Q&A-15, at 929). It does not ask whose customers were under orders: "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party" (Br. for Appellees at 41). It does not ask whether a compelled measure was "voluntary": Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order" (Q&A-14, at 929). And it does not ask for a percentage: "The 10 percent is not determinative ... Properly understood, it isn't an eligibility requirement" (Doc. 44 at 14). The Service's letters ask each of those questions. The statute asks one, and this report answers it, instrument by instrument.

How this report was assembled

The report is drawn from The COVID Project's Orders Library, which indexes the governmental orders that limited commerce, travel and group meetings in the United States from March 2020 through September 30, 2021. The Library is organized in layers, and the report walks them in order for your selection: the federal layer (proclamations, executive orders, agency orders and rules, and the federal courts' general orders); your State, from its first declaration to the instrument that ended its general restrictions; your metropolitan area's health officers, mayors and courts; the sector regulators of your industry (licensing boards, health departments, alcohol and gaming regulators, labor agencies and federal program rules); the clusters of authorities that are easy to overlook (ports, aviation, courts, motor-vehicle offices, tribal and territorial governments); the standing duties of your State and of the United States (communicable-disease, workplace-safety and liability-shield statutes); and the organizers' notices of the trade shows, conventions, seasons and tournaments your industry lost.

Every record carries one of two grades, and the report shows only these two. Primary source read means the compiler read the issuing authority's own text: the order as published, the register page, the codified rule, the court's docket entry. Confirmed from a secondary source means the instrument's existence, number, date and substance were established from an identifiable secondary source and the primary text was not read. Records graded unverified or not retrieved never appear. Every exhibit was retrieved from the issuing authority's site or from the Internet Archive's capture of it, kept only if its text contained a distinctive phrase of the instrument, hashed at retrieval and re-checked by a second reviewer.

Every instrument has one exhibit identifier, used everywhere on the site and in this report. A State instrument carries its two-letter State code and a serial number (Ex. TX-004 is Texas Executive Order GA-09 of March 22, 2020); a metropolitan instrument carries MET and the metro code; a federal instrument carries FED; a sector regulator's instrument carries SEC and the industry number, and an organizer's notice adds GM; an overlooked authority carries AGY and its cluster; a standing duty carries DUT and the State code, or DUT-FED (Ex. DUT-FED-001 is the general duty clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act); a legal authority carries LAW.

The dates decide the quarters. An instrument is in force in a quarter only if its effective date fell on or before the quarter's last day and its end date, if any, fell on or after the quarter's first day. The six quarters are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021. Because the CARES Act applies to wages paid after March 12, 2020, and the Service's Form 941-X instructions place the credit for wages paid March 13 through March 31, 2020 on the second-quarter return, the orders of March 13 through 31, 2020, the first stay-at-home and closure orders in the country, appear in the record of the second quarter of 2020.

4. The orders, quarter by quarter

For each quarter selected, the instruments in force appear by layer: the federal layer (the Library's FED-A and FED-B files, including the federal court orders they hold), the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators, and the agencies, boards and authorities whose orders resolve to the State. Within a layer the instruments that carry the industry's key limitation types come first, then the rest in date order. An instrument in force across several quarters is described in full where it first appears and listed in compact form in each later quarter. Every item carries its citation and its exhibit identifier.

CMS, in collaboration with medical societies and associations, recently created recommendations to postpone non-essential surgeries and other procedures. This document provides recommendations to limit those medical services that could be deferred, such as non-emergent, elective treatment, and preventive medical services for patients of all ages. A tiered framework is recommended to prioritize services and care to those who require emergent or urgent attention to save a life, manage severe disease, or avoid further harms from an underlying condition.... CMS urges healthcare facilities and clinicians to consider the following tiered approach to curtailing non-emergent, elective medical services and treatment.

Enforcement: Recommendations; made mandatory by State elective-procedure orders and referenced in CMS survey guidance

To expand capacity to care for these patients and to conserve adequate staff and supplies, especially personal protective equipment (PPE), on March 18 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recommended limiting non-essential care and expanding surge capacity into ambulatory surgical centers and other areas.... Therefore, if states or regions have passed the Gating Criteria (symptoms, cases, and hospitals) announced on April 16, 2020, then they may proceed to Phase I.... Maximum use of all telehealth modalities is strongly encouraged. However, for care that cannot be accomplished virtually, these recommendations -- the first in a series of recommendations -- may guide healthcare systems and facilities as they consider resuming in-person care of non-COVID-19 patients in regions with low incidence of COVID-19 disease.

End of general restrictions, State of New York: EO 202.108 (May 17, 2021; Ex.

NY-057) ended the remaining gathering limits; EO 210 (June 24, 2021; Ex. NY-049) rescinded Executive Orders 202 through 202.111 and 205 through 205.3 'effective June 25, 2021' (2021-06-25). What remained: 10 NYCRR Subpart 66-3 (face coverings for unvaccinated persons and for unvaccinated employees in contact with the public; employers must provide them; food-service employees masked at all times; readopted June 23, 2021, in force until repealed and replaced Aug. 27, 2021 by 10 NYCRR 2.60 and the Commissioner's Determination on Indoor Masking); 10 NYCRR 2.13 (isolation and quarantine orders; readopted May 28 and Aug. 26, 2021); 10 NYCRR Subpart 66-4 (nursing-home and adult-care vaccination offering and certification; June 24 and July 30, 2021); 10 NYCRR 405.11 and 415.19 (PPE stockpiles) and Part 360 (Surge and Flex; June 24 and July 30, 2021); the NY HERO Act, Labor Law 218-b (plans mandatory Aug. 5, 2021; 12 NYCRR 840.1 filed Aug. 5, 2021; plans activated by the Commissioner's designation of Sept. 6, 2021, continued Sept. 30 to Oct. 31, 2021); 10 NYCRR 2.61 (health-care worker vaccination, Aug. 26, 2021; first doses by Sept. 27 and Oct. 7, 2021); 10 NYCRR 2.9 and 2.62 (school reporting and weekly staff testing, Sept. 2, 2021); the residential and commercial eviction and foreclosure stays (ch. 381 of 2020, ch. 73 and ch. 104 of 2021 to Aug. 31, 2021; ch. 417 of 2021 to Jan. 15, 2022); Governor Hochul's EO 4 (Sept. 27, 2021, statewide disaster emergency for health-care staffing).

Preemption of local orders, State of New York: The State occupied the field from the first week. EO 202.3 (Mar. 16, 2020; Ex. NY-010): 'No local government or political subdivision shall issue any local emergency order or declaration of emergency or disaster inconsistent with, conflicting with or superseding the foregoing directives, or any other executive order issued under Section 24 of the Executive Law and any local emergency order or any local administrative codes, charters, laws, rules or regulations, are hereby suspended with respect to any such order issued under such authority different or in conflict with Executive directives.' EO 202.5 (Mar. 18, 2020; Ex. NY-012) repeated the bar 'Notwithstanding section 24 of the Executive Law.' EO 202.6 and 202.13 (Exs. NY-003, NY-015) gave Empire State Development Corporation alone the power to decide which businesses and which construction projects were essential. EO 202.11 (Mar. 27, 2020; Ex. NY-014): 'Any guidance issued by the New York State Department of Health related to prevention and infection control of COVID-19 shall be effective immediately and shall supersede any prior conflicting guidance issued by the New York State Department of Health and any guidance issued by any local board of health, any local department of health, or any other political subdivision of the State related to the same subject.' Reopening was likewise State-controlled: regions and industries reopened only when 'the Department of Health' determined the metrics were met (EO 202.31, 202.34, 202.35, 202.41, 202.45), New York City's indoor dining was withheld and restored by the Governor alone (EO 202.48, 202.61, 202.81, 202.93, 202.96, 202.97, 202.106), and cluster zones were drawn by DOH (EO 202.68). Ch. 71 of the Laws of 2021 (Mar. 7, 2021; Ex. NY-081) then provided that 'No directive shall be extended or modified to the extent that such directive prohibits the adoption by any municipality of this state a local executive order within such municipality's existing power except where such an order conflicts with any executive order issued by the state,' and gave the Legislature power to terminate directives and the emergency by concurrent resolution. After EO 210 (June 25, 2021) the State's general orders fell away and local instruments governed alongside the DOH regulations; the Department of Health's own Register statement (Sept. 15, 2021; Ex. NY-071) records that 'local governments have separate authority and responsibilities to control disease within their jurisdictions pursuant to PHL sec. 2100 and Part 2 of the State Sanitary Code.'

5. Standing duties in New York

New York placed every employer under three layers of standing law before the first COVID-19 directive issued, and every directive was written on top of them. First, the Public Health Law. Section 12(1)(a) makes 'any person who violates, disobeys or disregards any term or provision of this chapter or of any lawful notice, order or regulation pursuant thereto' liable for a civil penalty of up to $2,000 for every violation (up to $5,000 for a repeat violation that was a serious threat to health and safety, and $10,000 where serious physical harm results) (Ex. DUT-NY-001); section 12-b(1) makes wilful refusal to comply with any lawful order or regulation of a local board of health or health officer a misdemeanor, and section 12-b(2) makes wilful violation of the chapter or any regulation under it punishable by up to one year's imprisonment or a $10,000 fine (Ex. DUT-NY-002); section 16 lets the Commissioner order any person maintaining 'a condition or activity which in his opinion constitutes danger to the health of the people' to 'discontinue such dangerous condition or activity or take certain action immediately' (Ex. DUT-NY-003); section 206(1) charges the Commissioner to 'take cognizance of the interests of health and life of the people of the state' and to 'investigate the causes of disease, epidemics... and the effect of localities, employments and other conditions, upon the public health' (Ex. DUT-NY-004); section 225 empowers the Public Health and Health Planning Council to make the State Sanitary Code dealing with 'any matters affecting the security of life or health' and designating the communicable diseases dangerous to the public health (Ex. DUT-NY-005), and section 229 gives the Code 'the force and effect of law' with criminal penalties for non-compliance (Ex. DUT-NY-006); section 2100 commands every local board of health and health officer to 'guard against the introduction of such communicable diseases' by 'control of all persons and things infected with or exposed to such diseases' and lets them 'prohibit and prevent all intercourse and communication with or use of infected premises, places and things' and require their 'thorough purification and cleansing' before use resumes (Ex. DUT-NY-007); section 1303(3) commands every local board to 'order the suppression and removal of all nuisances and conditions detrimental to life and health' (Ex. DUT-NY-008); and 10 NYCRR 2.53 requires cleansing or disinfection of rooms and belongings after a person affected with a communicable disease leaves them (Ex. DUT-NY-009). The Governor's directives borrowed these teeth expressly: EO 202.14 made every violation of the directives 'punishable as a violation of public health law section 12-b(2)' (Ex. NY-016), and EO 202.16 made face coverings for customer-facing employees a duty 'enforced by local governments or local law enforcement' at the business's expense (Ex. NY-017). Second, the emergency statute. Executive Law section 29-a lets the Governor suspend laws during a State disaster emergency (Ex. DUT-NY-010); chapter 23 of 2020 added, from March 3, 2020, that 'the governor, by executive order, may issue any directive during a state disaster emergency declared in the following instances:... epidemic, disease outbreak...' and that 'any such directive must be necessary to cope with the disaster and may provide for procedures reasonably necessary to enforce such directive' (Ex. NY-080); chapter 71 of 2021 ended the power to issue new directives on March 7, 2021 while keeping every existing directive alive and extendable in 30-day increments for 'a public health directive related to managing the COVID-19 pandemic' (Ex. NY-081); Executive Law section 24(5) makes knowing violation of a local emergency order a class B misdemeanor (Ex. DUT-NY-011), the offense provision behind every New York City mayoral emergency order. Third, the workplace duties. Labor Law section 200(1): all places of employment 'shall be so constructed, equipped, arranged, operated and conducted as to provide reasonable and adequate protection to the lives, health and safety of all persons employed therein or lawfully frequenting such places' (Ex. DUT-NY-013); for private employers the federal general duty clause, 29 U.S.C. 654(a)(1), applies because New York's OSHA plan covers public employers only (Ex. DUT-NY-017); and from June 2021 the NY HERO Act, Labor Law section 218-b (Ex. NY-082; codified text Ex. DUT-NY-014; amended by chapter 142 of 2021, Ex. DUT-NY-015), required each employer to adopt an airborne infectious disease exposure prevention plan within thirty days after the Commissioner of Labor published the model standards (published July 6, 2021, Ex. NY-129), to distribute and post it, and to activate it on the Commissioner of Health's designation of COVID-19 (September 6, 2021, Ex. NY-127), on pain of civil penalties of $50 per day for having no plan and $1,000 to $10,000 for not abiding by one. New York's liability shield, the Emergency or Disaster Treatment Protection Act (Public Health Law article 30-D, chapter 56 of 2020, Part GGG, April 3, 2020), protected health care facilities and professionals only, and only where the services were provided 'in accordance with applicable law, or where appropriate pursuant to a COVID-19 emergency rule' and 'in support of the state's directives' (as amended by chapter 134 of 2020, Ex. DUT-NY-016); the Legislature repealed it on April 6, 2021 (chapter 96 of 2021, Ex. DUT-NY-018). Every other New York business had no shield at all; compliance with the health directives was its only defense to negligence under section 200 and the common law. On those duties the Governor built the operating conditions: EO 202.6 ('Each employer shall reduce the in-person workforce at any work locations by 50%', Ex. NY-003), EO 202.31 and 202.35 (reopened businesses 'must be operated subject to the guidance promulgated by the Department of Health', Exs. NY-022, NY-026), the ESD guidance ('Essential Businesses must continue to comply with the guidance and directives for maintaining a clean and safe work environment issued by the Department of Health', Ex. NY-091), and the NY Forward industry guidance ('No office-based work activities can operate without meeting the following minimum State standards'; 'Responsible Parties must affirm that they have reviewed and understand the state-issued industry guidelines, and that they will implement them', Ex. NY-131). The Eastern District of New York sustained the binding character of these conditions against a due-process challenge in Columbus Ale House, Inc. v. Cuomo (Oct. 16, 2020) (Ex. DUT-NY-019), and the Attorney General pleaded in People v. Amazon.com, Inc. (Feb. 16, 2021) that section 200 'requires employers to provide reasonable and adequate protection' and that the public-health guidance 'establishes the measures employers should institute... to satisfy their obligations under Labor Law § 200' (Ex. DUT-NY-020).

The phase question

Whether the measures employers took 'beyond' the orders were voluntary. New York answer: the measures were the performance of duties imposed by statute (Public Health Law sections 12, 12-b, 16, 206, 225, 229, 1303 and 2100; Executive Law sections 24 and 29-a as amended by chapter 23 of 2020; Labor Law sections 200 and 218-b; 29 U.S.C. section 654(a)(1)), by the State Sanitary Code (10 NYCRR Part 2), and by directives that made continued operation conditional on Department of Health guidance ('must be operated subject to the guidance promulgated by the Department of Health', EO 202.31 and 202.35) and made every violation an offense under Public Health Law section 12-b(2) (EO 202.14).

Therefore an employer may choose to administer COVID-19 testing to employees before initially permitting them to enter the workplace... An employer may require employees to wear protective gear (for example, masks and gloves) and observe infection control practices (for example, regular hand washing and social distancing protocols).

6. Partial suspension, element by element, for this business

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business in New York with the instruments this report found for the quarters selected and no others: the order; the function of the business it reached; the change it compelled, in its own words; the days of the quarter on which it was in force; and the statute's answer. Where the Library holds only federal-layer and standing-duty instruments for a quarter, the section says so and applies the test to those instruments.

Second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the second quarter of 2020 the Library holds 293 instruments in force for this selection: 58 instruments from the State of New York (Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Executive Order No. 202.45 (New York Forward, Phase Four) (June 26, 2020) (Ex. NY-031); Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Executive Order No. 202.3 (Mar. 16, 2020) (Ex. NY-010); Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Executive Order No. 202.8 (Mar. 20, 2020) (Ex. NY-002); and 55 more), 16 instruments from the agencies, boards and authorities of New York (Chancellor Felix V. Matos Rodriguez, Guidance on Academic Continuity to Campuses (March 2020) and the Chancellor's recalibration-period directives of March 11-19, 2020 (Mar. 11, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-EDUCATION-HIGHER-ED-060); Board of Directors of the New York Convention Center Operating Corporation, Minutes of the Board of Directors meeting of April 22, 2020 (Apr. 22, 2020) (Ex.

AGY-ST-CORRECTIONS-EMA-GUARD-064); and 13 more), 179 federal instruments (The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Guidelines for Opening Up America Again (Apr. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-192); CMS, Quality, Safety & Oversight Group, QSO-20-14-NH, Guidance for Infection Control and Prevention of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Nursing Homes (Mar. 9, 2020; REVISED Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex.

Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions, in the Library's own labels: WF (Ex. NY-031); CB (Ex. NY-022); SF sales floor (Ex. NY-002); PM property management (Ex. NY-002); HR (Ex. NY-106); WF workforce (Ex. NY-002); all functions (Ex. NY-090); CB customer base (Ex. NY-010); CB patients (Ex. NY-005); GATH events (Ex. NY-010).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Executive Order No. 202.45 (New York Forward, Phase Four) (June 26, 2020) (Ex.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Cuomo), Chapter 127 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8192-B), the Tenant Safe Harbor Act (June 30, 2020) (Ex. NY-087); New York State Legislature (S.9114, signed by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo), Chapter 381 of the Laws of 2020 (S.9114), COVID-19 Emergency Eviction and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2020 (Dec. 28, 2020) (Ex. NY-083); New York State Legislature (S.471-A, signed by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo), Chapter 73 of the Laws of 2021 (S.471-A), COVID-19 Emergency Protect Our Small Businesses Act of 2021 (Mar. 9, 2021) (Ex. NY-084); and 20 more), 9 instruments from the agencies, boards and authorities of New York (New York State Legislature; signed by Governor Cuomo, Chapter 25 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8091) (Mar. 18, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-003); New York State Legislature (Sens. Parker, Hoylman, Metzger); approved by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Chapter 108 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8113-A) (June 17, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-UTILITIES-HOUSING-AG-006); New York State Thruway Authority, Systemwide cashless tolling goes live on the New York State Thruway (Nov. 14, 2020); toll booths removed thereafter (Ex. AGY-AVIATION-SURFACE-068); and 6 more), 167 federal instruments (Supreme Court of the United States (Public Information Office), Press release of March 12, 2020 (Building closed to the public) (Mar. 12, 2020) (Ex. FED-290); U.S. House of Representatives (H.Res. 965, 116th Cong., agreed to May 15, 2020), H.Res. 965, Authorizing remote voting by proxy in the House of Representatives and providing for official remote committee proceedings during a public health emergency due to a novel coronavirus (May 15, 2020) (Ex. FED-398); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS, CDC Framework for Conditional Sailing Order (Oct. 30, 2020) (Ex. FED-031); and 164 more) and 44 standing duties (Congress (Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, § 5, Pub. L. 91-596, 84 Stat. 1593), 29 U.S.C. 654 (OSH Act § 5, the general duty clause) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-001); Congress (OSH Act § 11(c)), 29 U.S.C. 660(c) (OSH Act § 11(c), anti-retaliation) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-002); and 42 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions, in the Library's own labels: WF (Ex. AGY-AVIATION-SURFACE-068); HR (Ex. NY-134); CB (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-003); IC infection control (Ex. NY-135); OF (Ex. NY-133); CL (Ex. NY-084); OF workplace (Ex. NY-082); PM (Ex. NY-084); all in-person functions (Ex. NY-082); CL court process (Ex. NY-087).

Step three, the change compelled. New York State Legislature; signed by Governor Cuomo, Chapter 25 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8091) (Mar. 18, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-003) ordered: "(c) For employers with one hundred or more employees as of January 1, 2020, each employee who is subject to a mandatory or precautionary order of quarantine or isolation issued by the state of New York, the department of health, local board of health, or any governmental entity duly authorized to…" Enforcement: Labor Law enforcement by the Commissioner of Labor (civil penalties and restoration under Labor Law §§ 218, 219); job-restoration and anti-retaliation… New York State Legislature (Sens. Parker, Hoylman, Metzger); approved by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Chapter 108 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8113-A) (June 17, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-UTILITIES-HOUSING-AG-006) ordered: "6. No utility corporation or municipality shall terminate or disconnect services to any residential customer for the non-payment of an overdue charge for the duration of the state disaster emergency declared pursuant to executive order two hundred two of two thousand twenty (herein after 'the…" Enforcement: PSL 25 (civil penalties for violation of the Public Service Law and Commission orders) and PSL 26; the statute preserves utilities' recovery of 'lost or… New York State Legislature (S.8192-B, signed by Governor Andrew M. Cuomo), Chapter 127 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8192-B), the Tenant Safe Harbor Act (June 30, 2020) (Ex. NY-087) ordered: "'COVID-19 covered period' means March 7, 2020 until the date on which none of the provisions that closed or otherwise restricted public or private businesses or places of public accommodation, or required postponement or cancellation of all non-essential gatherings of individuals of any size for any…" Enforcement: Bar on warrants of eviction and judgments of possession (courts) The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 days. Chapter 25 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8091) (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-003) was in force from Mar. 18, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 of the quarter's 92 days; Chapter 127 of the Laws of 2020 (S.8192-B), the Tenant Safe Harbor Act (Ex. NY-087) was in force from June 30, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 of the quarter's 92 days; Systemwide cashless tolling goes live on the New York State Thruway (Nov. 14, 2020); toll… (Ex. AGY-AVIATION-SURFACE-068) was in force from Nov. 14, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 of the quarter's 92 days. Of the 32 instruments in the quarter's record, 10 were in force on its first day, 26 on its last day and 7 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the third quarter of 2021 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

8. How to use this report

Keep this report with your payroll records and the other records that support your claim. The Notice itself describes what those records are. Q&A-70 says an employer "will adequately substantiate eligibility for the employee retention credit if the employer creates and maintains records that include," among other things, "any governmental order to suspend the employer's business operations" and "any records the employer relied upon to determine whether more than a nominal portion of its operations were suspended due to a governmental order or whether a governmental order had more than a nominal effect on its business operations" (Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, Q&A-70, at 944-45). Q&A-71 says to keep those records "for at least 4 years after the date the tax becomes due or is paid, whichever comes later" (Q&A-71, at 945). This report is the first of those two items for your selection, and it is meant to sit beside the second.

If you have received a letter from the Service saying that no government orders were in effect during the quarter you claimed, this report answers that sentence with the public record, order by order. Read the quarter you claimed. For each instrument, the report gives you the issuer, the number, the dates, the words that commanded the change, the penalty behind them and the exhibit. Those are facts about the public record, and anyone can check them against the register, the code or the docket the report cites. The Service is free to argue about how much a given order affected your business. Whether the orders existed is not a matter of opinion.

Three points of public law matter to anyone holding such a letter. First, a notice that turns down a refund claim starts a clock. Under section 6532(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, a refund suit cannot be brought "after the expiration of 2 years from the date of mailing by certified mail or registered mail by the Secretary to the taxpayer of a notice of the disallowance of the part of the claim to which the suit or proceeding relates." Second, asking the IRS Independent Office of Appeals to review the letter does not stop that clock; the Service's own page on the letter says so ("Requesting an appeal doesn't extend this time"), and section 6532(a)(4) provides that the Service's later consideration of the claim does not extend the period. Third, the period can be extended only by a written agreement between you and the Service under section 6532(a)(2), made on Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, and effective only if the Service signs it before the two years run out.
