Most firms approach tariff recovery as a claims process and payroll optimization as a compliance exercise. IG Advisors approaches both as capital strategies. The distinction matters because it determines how each program is structured, how quickly value is realized, and how the two programs can work together to accelerate financial outcomes for the business.
We identify high-impact recovery opportunities across both programs that generalist firms consistently overlook. Our audit process surfaces compounding tariff exposures across extended filing history while our FICA analysis identifies hidden payroll savings most businesses do not know exist.
Every tariff claim and FICA program is structured to meet strict compliance and defensibility standards. The FICA program is validated by a Big 4 accounting firm and a Top 100 law firm. We do not take shortcuts that compromise the integrity of either program.
We go beyond recovery to unlock capital now on both fronts. Advance funding on qualified tariff recoveries and immediate FICA savings starting the next payroll cycle are both central to how we deliver value.
Dedicated support, transparent communication, and ongoing reporting throughout every engagement. You always know where your recovery stands and what is coming next.
Businesses do not have to wait for government finalization to access funds. Qualified recoveries can be advanced immediately, converting future receivables into present capital.
From initial audit through filing, documentation, agency correspondence, and final resolution, IG Advisors manages the full recovery process. Your team's involvement after the discovery phase is minimal.
Our infrastructure handles tariff claims from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions and FICA programs scaling across workforces of any size. There is no threshold above which we cannot effectively manage either program.
Companies with consistent cross-border purchasing and large annual import spend across multiple product categories.
Domestic manufacturers sourcing components or materials internationally with FICA-eligible workforces and extended import history.
Multi-tier operations with layered supply chains, high import frequency, and significant headcount across locations.
Fast-growing online retailers with significant product import volume and an active need for working capital flexibility.
Specialized verticals with complex HTS classifications and benefits gaps to fill across a skilled workforce.
Any company with import exposure and 25 or more employees is a candidate for one or both programs.
