R&D Tax Credits
The Section 41 R&D Tax Credit delivers dollar-for-dollar reductions in your federal tax bill — not just a deduction against income. Unlike the 174A deduction, unclaimed credits don't carry over indefinitely; they can be lost. Our team calculates and claims credits retroactively for up to three prior tax years, recovering money your business has already earned.

About the service
The R&D Tax Credit is one of the most valuable and underutilized incentives in the U.S. tax code. While the 174A deduction reduces your taxable income, the Section 41 credit reduces your actual tax liability — dollar for dollar. For most companies, that's a meaningfully larger benefit.
The credit is calculated based on qualified research expenses (QREs) — wages, contractor costs, and supplies directly tied to qualifying R&D activity. Using the Alternative Simplified Credit (ASC) method, businesses typically realize a credit equal to 6% of QREs above a baseline — and many companies qualify for more than they expect, including software development, product testing, process improvements, and engineering work.
Critically, the credit can be calculated and claimed retroactively for up to three prior tax years. That means money your business spent on qualifying R&D in 2022, 2023, and 2024 may still be recoverable through amended returns. We handle the full process — identifying QREs, preparing the technical documentation, filing amended returns where beneficial, and ensuring your claim is audit-ready
