Missed the R&D Tax Credit?

So you may have forgotten to take the R&D credit on the last tax return you filed for your company or your client.

Not a problem!

Federal and State R&D Tax credits can be taken on amended returns. As a matter of fact, your company may be entitled to go back for up to FOUR years to take the Federal and State credits.

Of course the longer you wait, the fewer years you will be able to amend.

If you’re not sure if your company or accountant claimed the credit it’s easy to look for.

Although an R&D Tax Credit study is needed to support your calculations, simply look for Form 6765 on your current company’s tax return. If it’s missing, you probably missed the credit.

So Stop Procrastinating and Get Your R&D Tax Credits Claimed TODAY!

Why Do Companies Overlook the R&D Tax Credit?

Manufacturers, software companies, architects and engineers, and jewelry design companies are the most common industries to overlook tax credits.

There are Two Main Reasons That The Credits are Overlooked:

Companies don’t understand that their activities qualify. For example, many companies such as manufacturers and software companies qualify as well as architects! Let an expert analyze your business activities to see if they qualify.
Companies think they can’t use the credit because they are currently not a taxpayer. In 2017 the R&D tax credit program was expanded to allow start-up companies that are not paying Federal income tax to apply for the credit against their payroll taxes and get an immediate cash benefit. You may qualify as a start-up company.
