Common mistakes

  • Leaving out supporting documents. Submit the required documentation and supporting schedules for every credit claimed.
  • Using the wrong column. Column A is the total credit generated in 2024 plus available prior-year carryforwards. Column B is the portion used to offset 2024 tax.
  • Including certificate numbers in credit totals. Exclude lines 19 and 24 when adding lines 2 through 27 for line 28.
  • Claiming more than the tax liability. Total credits on line 28B cannot exceed the tax on line 1.
  • Skipping rounding rules. Round dollar amounts to the nearest whole dollar and calculate percentages to the fourth decimal place.
  • Using inconsistent identifying information. The corporation name and CAN or FEIN on page 2 must match page 1.
