Gain a better understanding of the considerations and requirements of the research tax credit.
On October 15, 2021, the IRS issued Field Attorney Advice (FAA) 20214101F, which attempts to require specific and extensive documentation for any R&D credit refund claim that differs substantially from historic statutory and regulatory requirements. Subsequent to the issuance of the FAA, the IRS issued Interim Guidance and FAQs to provide IRS Examining Agents with procedural guidance for applying FAA 20214101F in an examination of a taxpayer's refund claim under Section 41. Due to these significant changes to the statutory and regulatory requirements for research credit refund claims, taxpayers must reevaluate their historic filing processes and positions to ensure they comply with the new heightened requirements. This course will help taxpayers understand the differences between the statutory requirements and those now imposed under FAA 20214101F and the requirements needed to properly substantiate a research credit refund claim under the new guidance. As the new requirements took effect on January 10, 2022, and with a limited window period to perfect deficient claims available through January 9, 2023, this information is critical for taxpayers that have filed or are considering filing a research credit refund claim to ensure such claims are fully substantiated under the new requirements.
