R&D Tax Reliefs
The US Research and Development (R&D) tax relief regime is a federal and state government incentive designed to encourage businesses to invest in innovation.
​
Many businesses are unaware that R&D tax relief applies to a wide range of industries, not just traditional "lab coat" research. R&D activities in sectors like manufacturing, software, engineering, and more can qualify. Each case is unique, so there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.
Benefits For Start-Ups: Reduce Payroll Tax
If you’re a start-up, you can apply a portion of your R&D tax credit to reduce payroll taxes, rather than income taxes, which is helpful if you're not yet generating profits.
Tax Credit (S.41) - Reduce Income Tax
This allows a dollar-for-dollar reduction in your income tax liability based on your qualified research expenses. You can also carry it back to reduce last year’s taxes or carry it forward for up to 20 years.
Deduction (S.174) - Reduce Taxable Income
You can either immediately deduct or spread out (amortize) expenses incurred for research and development. This helps reduce your overall taxable income.
