Abstract:
On March 23, 2010, the President signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Act) (Pub. L. 111-148). Section 9023(a) of the Act adds section 48D to the Internal Revenue Code. Section 48D provides a 50-percent nonrefundable investment tax credit, and corresponding grant in lieu of a tax credit, for qualified investments in qualifying therapeutic discovery projects. The credit and grant are designed to encourage investments in new therapies relating to diseases. Form 8942 will be used to apply for certification and credit.
Emergency Justfication:
Section 9023 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-148), signed March, 23, 2010, establishes a 50-percent nonrefundable investment tax credit, and corresponding grant in lieu of a tax credit, for qualified investments in qualifying therapeutic discovery projects. The provision allocates $1 billion during the 2-year period 2009 through 2010 for the program. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with HHS, will award certifications for qualified investments. Section 9023(a) stipulates in new section 48D of the Internal Revenue Code that the Secretary of the Treasury has 60-days from the date of enactment of the Act to establish the program. Qualifying Therapeutic Discovery Project Credit, NOT -113712-10, will be published, per the statute, by May 22, 2010, 60 days from the date of enactment. Thus, we are requesting an emergency Paperwork Reduction Act review by 5/19/2010.
