Is there a way for a small business owner to suspend operations until after a deployment?

I own a small pressure washing business and I should be getting deployed in 2019 or 2020 and I would like to know if there is a way to defer my taxes, insurance, etc. until after my deployment is complete. I haven’t found too much on Google and was hoping someone may have experience with a situation like this.

Most of the 'relief' that is available when you become deployed is geared toward the employee or to personal fixed costs - unfortunately, I am not aware of any relief for a business in regards to the aspects you mention. If there is something, it may be at the state or county level and may not be written into any county or state code. You may benefit from human kindness rather than hard and fast rule if that is the case.
