We are the largest purchaser/financier of entertainment tax credits in the country that specializes in independent productions. You can find some of the highlights involving New Mexico film tax credits below.
New Mexico Highlights:
• 25% refundable credit applies to resident cast and crew, and in-state rentals, purchases and services that are subject to NM tax.
• Payments for nonresident performing artists can qualify if paid via a “super loan-out” company which pays gross receipts tax (“GRT”) in NM and the artists pay NM income tax. The 5% GRT is eligible for the credit, so credit for out-of-state performing artists is effectively 21.25%.

• Stand-lone post-production can qualify
