TCG for CPAs

R&D

Did you know that the research tax credit is one of the most complicated sections of the entire tax code? In fact, the IRS declared it the most commonly reported “uncertain tax position” in 2010, 2011 and 2012. The R&D credit can be a valuable addition to any tax professional’s service line, but keeping up with everchanging rules, gathering the necessary documentation from clients and dealing with time-consuming controversy work often diminishes that value for busy CPAs.

At TCG, we do the heavy lifting, allowing our CPA partners to offer a full suite of Federal and State R&D tax credit services without spending valuable time and resources dealing with all the red tape.
