 CREDITS FOR DAYCARE ASSISTANCE AND DEVELOPMENT DEFINITION: 
 Amount expended” means the actual sums of money spent, or the cost or other basis for Federal tax purposes of real or tan- 
 gible personal property donated or dedicated to the establishment of a daycare center. In the case of purchased daycare 
 (Section I) the “amount expended” cannot include sums in excess of the actual cost of daycare services purchased for each 
 individual child or dependent adult. 
 
 LIMITATIONS OF CREDIT, CARRYOVERS AND CONSOLIDATION: 

 1. No credit is allowed unless the daycare facility has a RI license under RIGL 42-72.1, or in the case of a daycare for depend- 
 ent adults, the facility must be certified by the Department of Elderly Affairs. The license or certification number MUST be 
 shown were indicated on the form. 
 
 2. The credit is allowed against the business corporation tax (44-11),  public service corporation tax (44-13) (except the tax in 
 44-13-13), the bank excise tax (44-14) and the insurance companies’ gross premiums tax (44-17). Enter the credit amount on 
 line 2 of the Business Entity Credit Schedule, Schedule B-CR. 
 
 3. Maximum annual credit for purchased daycare in RI (Section I) is $30,000 and in the case of those taxes having minimum 
 amounts, the credit cannot reduce the tax to less than the minimum tax for the taxpayer.  The balance of unused credit may 
 not be carried over to any subsequent tax year. 
 
 4. Maximum total annual credit for daycare establishment and operations in RI (Section II and III) and for amounts foregone 
 (Section IV) is $30,000; the total credit cannot reduce the tax below its stated minimum and the balance of unused credit may 
 be carried over for 5 years. 
 
 5. Credits carried over to succeeding taxable years may not be used  if during that time the taxpayer’s facility was operated for 
 less than 6 months. 
 
 6. Amounts expended for purchased daycare (Section I) are to be solely to provide care for the dependent children or adults of 
 the taxpayer’s employees or employees of commercial tenants of the taxpayer during the employees’ hours of employment. 
 
 7. Amounts expended for the establishment and operation of a daycare facility (Sections II and III) qualify if the facility is used 
 primarily by the dependent children or adults of the taxpayer’s employees during the employees’ hours of employment. 
 
 8. The credit is 30% of the total amount foregone in rent or lease payments for rental or lease space in RI for daycare serv- 
 ices. The amount foregone is the difference between fair market rental and actual rental. The burden of proof of fair market 
 value is upon the claimant taxpayer and such proof should include prior rental/lease of the same property. Where the prop- 
 erty was not previously rented or leased, appraisals of the property by competent parties independent of the claimant taxpayer 
 should be used. 
 
 9. In the case of a business corporation filing a consolidated return (44-11), a credit will be allowed against the tax of only that 
 corporation which qualifies for the credit and will not be allowed against the tax of other corporations that may join the filing of 
 a consolidated state tax return.
