Confidently Leverage the Tax Credits You Qualify For
We take a holistic approach to tax planning and consulting. We don’t just look at the tax credits you qualify for this year, we explore your finances as a whole to provide cohesive tax planning. Together, we’ll ensure you have the proper documentation in place to secure your credits on time each year that you qualify.
Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERC)
To support companies impacted by COVID-19, the IRS enacted an employee retention credit designed to reward firms that suffered financial losses but still retained employees. Aura Advisors helps companies in all industries understand how to qualify for this credit. We then provide support claiming the credit and reviewing how this impacts your filings.
Research & Development Tax Credit (R&D)
We support companies that invest in qualified research and development activities in claiming the research & development (R&D) tax credit they’ve earned.
