WEST VIRGINIA’s 27% to 31% transferable tax credit has been hampered by a recapture provision, whereby the good-faith buyer of credits might lose their value should the state later determine that the production was not entitled to the credits. A temporary solution has been proposed so that once the production company submits and receives approval for its Agreed Upon Procedures Audit from the state, a letter will be issued removing the possibility of recapture. This should be a boon to production in WV, the only state that offers River On Demand â„¢, which tailors the flow of the Gauley River to the needs of the production. Our friends at Tax Credits LLC helped develop this proposal.

WEST VIRGINIA will soon submit to its legislature a correction that will substantially improve their incentives package. It will be in the form of a transferable tax credit starting at 27%, with an additional 4% if 10 or more workers on the film are WV residents. A maximum of $10 million of credits will be available per year.
