Relocating to a HUBZone Area in Tampa Bay Florida?
Current regulations require an employee to live in a qualified HUBZone for at least 180 days or be a currently registered voter in that area and be hired by the company before that employee will count towards the HUBZone/Non-HUBZone employee mix. Under the proposed change, after such period, the employee will always count as a HUBZone employee as long as they remain employed by the HUBZone certified company, even if that employees moves to a non-HUBZone area or their residence loses its HUBZone designation.
It’s also worth bearing in mind that these are the eligibility criteria for typical HUBZones—that is, those owned by individuals. There are separate eligibility criteria for companies owned by Indian tribes, Alaska Native Corporations, Native Hawaiian Organizations, and Community Development Corporations.
