You receive a call during your busy workday. A caller at the end of the line informs you that based on your company profile you may be eligible for substantial tax credits. How much? They can’t say yet however the average is $250,000. Sometimes much,Is Your Company Entitled to Millions in Tax Credits? Articles much moreYou try and find the “catch”. Upront fees? Zero, the company offers to pay all expenses.

References? Company has multiple ecstatic clients including many CPA firms who offer their service to maximize their clients returns.

Price? Strictly success based…..meaning if your company does not qualify and you receive no money, you do not pay a dime.

Sound too good to be true right? After all free money?…..c’mon…..

But this this is an example of a real life call from a company in the small yet growing industry of specialist tax recovery firms in North America.

And the tax credits are real enough. Individual companies have been credited back an up to an amazing 3 MILLION dollars that they were completely unaware of. Total available credits run in the billions. Average recoveries in small to midsized firms are a quarter of a million dollars.

But how can this be? And why are you not aware of it?Robert Edwards a consultant at Paradigm Partners LP, a Texas based Tax recovery firm states there are just too few companies like his and too many eligible companies to get the word out in any efficient manner. The government has created these incredibly beneficial incentives, however less than 5% of companies are even aware of them.

Even worse the time, effort and expertise required to actually get a share of these credits is far beyond the scope of even the best trained generalist CFO’s and CPA’s. In fact many CPA firms now outsource their tax credit business to specialists such as Paradigm. It is a win/win as Paradigm is one of the few companies who work on a contingency basis, meaning no huge upfront fees are  required. And if the company is not eligible it doent cost them a dime.

Who qualifies for these credits? Basically depending on the tax credit the best candidates fall into one or several of the following categories;· Manufacturing· Fabrication· Engineering· Architecture· Construction· Software Development· Electronics· Biotechnology· Medical Practices· Surgical Techniques· Oilfield Services· Food Sciences and Agro-Business

The biggest misconception states Edwards is the  companies don’t believe they are “high tech” enough to qualify. As he puts it “A company making manure bags is just as eligible as a tech company in Silicon valley, sometimes even more eligible”If you would like a no obligation assesment to determine if your company would be eligible you may contact Rob Edwards at info@nwbn.org or visit the website at http://www.nwbn.org
