Wisconsin has a new film production tax credit. I help producers figure out what they qualify for, put the application together, and get the money back.
The Film Production Services Credit returns 30% of qualified in-state wages and spending. Refundable and nonrefundable components.
A separate income/franchise credit covers the full Wisconsin sales and use tax you pay on qualifying production purchases.
Per-applicant cap is $1 million. Only $5M available statewide each year, so early applications have a real advantage.
If you're spending money in Wisconsin on something people will watch, it probably does. Minimum is $100k for projects over 30 minutes, $50k for shorter works.
Feature films, scripted TV, unscripted TV, documentaries, short films, and broadcast advertising.
We look at your budget, your crew, your timeline. I'll map out exactly how to structure payroll and vendors to maximize what you capture.
Application, documentation, accreditation from Film Wisconsin — all handled while you stay focused on making something great.
After wrap, a CPA-verified report goes to Film Wisconsin. They issue your certificate, and the credit shows up on your Wisconsin tax return.
What are you making, when are you filming, and roughly what are you spending in Wisconsin? Happy to take a look and let you know what's possible.
