How Can I Claim R&D Tax Credits?

Q

A:  R&D tax credits are available across a wide range of industries, from aerospace and machining to breweries and vineyards.

Part of this process involves filling out IRS Form 6765, which requires documented proof of qualifying innovation expenses. 40 West Consulting specializes in assisting clients with the application process, from determining initial eligibility to organizing and submitting necessary documentation.
