STACKING POTENTIAL

Research & Development Tax Credit is stackable — it can be combined with other federal, state, and local programs on the same project. Michigan and Ohio projects commonly stack this program with Federal Historic Tax Credit, New Markets Tax Credit, and Opportunity Zone deferral to maximize total incentive value.
