$2.7 Million Georgia Jobs Credit

This company, audited by a Big 4, had a complex history, including several acquisitions and divestitures and a corporate headquarters move from out-of-state to Georgia. The company began adding jobs in Georgia in the mid-90’s. For whatever reason, the Big 4 firm had not advised the client to claim Georgia jobs credits, credits the client clearly was entitled to claim. The problem was, by the time we got involved with this company, most of the jobs had been added in back-years. Seemingly the statute of limitations in Georgia (usually three years) had closed. Through our insight, we identified two unique rules that enabled us to go “way back” into seemingly closed years, and secure a $2.7 million credit for the client.
