If your business meets the following criteria, you may be exempt from some of the new reporting requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Section G is optional for Qualified Small Business (QSB) taxpayers, as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 41(h)(1) and (2), who elect to claim a reduced payroll tax credit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Companies with total QREs of $1.5 million or less and gross receipts of $50 million or less, as determined under Section 448(c)(3), when claiming a research credit on an originally filed return, will also not be required to complete Section G.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to submit Form 6765<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You must document your qualified R&amp;D expenses by completing the four basic sections of Form 6765:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Section A<\/strong> is for claiming the regular credit and requires information on eight specific lines (1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 17).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Section B<\/strong> is for the alternative simplified credit (ASC).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Section C<\/strong> lists additional forms and schedules that must be reported based on the business structure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Section D<\/strong> is only needed for qualified small businesses (QSBs) opting for a payroll tax election.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The IRS advises businesses to calculate their credit using the regular <em>and <\/em>simplified credit methods and then complete the section (A or B) that provides the highest tax benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does the US R&amp;D tax credit work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Normally, companies can use 6-10% of their qualifying research and development (R&amp;D) expenses as a tax credit to directly reduce the amount of federal income tax they owe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong>: If your company has $1 million in qualifying R&amp;D expenses, you might be able to claim an R&amp;D tax credit of $60,000-$100,000, which would directly lower your tax bill by that amount.<\/p>\n\n\n        <div class=\"mb-8 top-tip\">\n            \n                            <span class=\"flex items-center text-dark-purple-100 opacity-60 uppercase mb-2 text-sm font-bold\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"!w-6 !h-6 !object-contain mr-2\" src=\"https:\/\/toggl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/toggl-mjtweaver\/img\/brain.png\" alt=\"Top tips to enlarge those brains\" aria-label=\"Top tips to enlarge those brains\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" loading=\"lazy\">    \n                    <span>Top tip:<\/span>\n                <\/span>\n            \n            <div class=\"bg-yellow-30 border-t-[3px] border-yellow-100 px-6 pt-6 pb-2\"><p>A tax deduction is <em>not <\/em>the same thing as this type of tax credit. The difference? A tax deduction lowers your taxable income, whereas a tax credit directly offsets the taxes owed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n\n<p>So, what counts as a qualifying R&amp;D expense? We go over that more in-depth in our <a href=\"https:\/\/toggl.com\/blog\/rd-tax-credit\">full guide to maximizing the US R&amp;D tax credit<\/a>, but here&#8217;s a TLDR:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Creating intellectual property such as processes, patents, formulas, techniques, prototypes, or software<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dedicating time and resources to new product development<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Iterating, improving, or redesigning existing products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hiring the necessary staff to engage in qualified activities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expenses to run the R&amp;D, such as salaries, supplies, and tools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re unsure, the IRS outlines four tests that count as qualifying R&amp;D expenses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Section 174 Test: Making something new<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong>: A car company spends money to design a new electric battery that lasts longer. The money spent on testing, designing, and improving the battery qualifies as R&amp;D expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Discovering Technological Information Test: Using science or technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong>: A software company creates a new AI program to detect fraud in bank transactions. The program involves computer science and algorithms, qualifying it for R&amp;D tax credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Business Component Test: Make a product, process, material, or software that helps the business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong>: A toy company develops a new type of plastic that makes toys safer and more durable. Since the new material improves their product, it qualifies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Experimentation Test: Testing different ideas to improve over time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong>: A sneaker company tries different materials to make waterproof shoes that are still breathable. They test different combinations until they find one that works. The costs qualify for tax credits since they conducted an iterative testing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to accurately document R&amp;D activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping meticulous records ensures compliance with IRS requirements while maximizing your potential tax savings. Here are some best practices for tracking R&amp;D expenses and activities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u23f1\ufe0f <strong>Maintain detailed time logs:<\/strong> Keep precise records of time spent on R&amp;D activities, including employee hours for research, supervision, and support. Break down the work by business component (e.g., product, process, software).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\ud83d\udcbb Use digital tools<\/strong>: Leverage time-tracking software and project management tools to track work on specific R&amp;D projects efficiently. These tools automate reporting, making it easier to allocate expenses correctly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\ud83d\udcb0 Document all expenses<\/strong>: Record every cost associated with R&amp;D, including wages, supplies, contract research, and equipment. Make sure you categorize your expenses correctly to reflect the qualifying activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u26a1 Review regularly<\/strong>: Audit your records regularly to keep everything up-to-date and avoid overlooking eligible expenses. This is a simple way to prevent costly errors during the credit calculation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n        <div class=\"mb-8 top-tip\">\n            \n                            <span class=\"flex items-center text-dark-purple-100 opacity-60 uppercase mb-2 text-sm font-bold\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"!w-6 !h-6 !object-contain mr-2\" src=\"https:\/\/toggl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/toggl-mjtweaver\/img\/brain.png\" alt=\"Top tips to enlarge those brains\" aria-label=\"Top tips to enlarge those brains\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" loading=\"lazy\">    \n                    <span>Top tip:<\/span>\n                <\/span>\n            \n            <div class=\"bg-yellow-30 border-t-[3px] border-yellow-100 px-6 pt-6 pb-2\"><p>Accurate documentation ensures your tax credit claims are well-supported and reduces the risk of IRS scrutiny or audits.
