This article explains that in 2021 the IRS announced that “refund claims for section 41 research credits must include detailed information in five specific areas, with claims failing to meet these requirements deemed invalid. The IRS provided a one-year transition period during which examiners could correspond with taxpayers on the required information and give them 45 days to cure deficiencies.” Now, the IRS is considering extending the transition period which would be beneficial to small business owners seeking to take advantage of potential R&D tax credits.
