Break Free From The
Traditional Tax Trap
Keep More of Your Money Now and in Retirement
Our Mission: Helping You Keep More of What you Earn, & Earn More On What You Keep
At Safe Money Partners, we educate our clients so they can start learning more about how taxes impact retirement and their financial future. Then, we help find opportunities to create and build wealth with the money they already have.
Americans have a choice. You can have the government’s retirement plan or you can create your own custom plan that gives you the freedom of choice and keep more of your hard-earned income, and increase it!
- One plan naturally SEPARATES you from the tax-trap that is the TRADITIONAL system. The other plan HANDCUFFS you because you never read the ‘fine print’.
- One plan provides you with LIQUIDITY all through your working years. The other plan locks away your money so you are forced to acquire debt every time you are in a pinch.
- One plan encourages you to grow additional tax-free assets for use anytime. The other plan discourages growth often with high fees and underperforming investment options.
Our well-rounded team can help give you the power to have control over the choices available to you now and in retirement. Start making your money work for you, instead of “waiting” for retirement. Maintain and improve your current lifestyle by creating a plan that encompasses your entire financial life.

R&D Tax Credits
The Research & Development Tax Credit was originally enacted as a Federal Tax Program in 1981 and was designed to encourage American investment in innovation. In 2004, tax regulation changes significantly expanded the credit opportunity.
Today, the credit is accessible to many small and medium sized companies whose activities include design, manufacturing and process improvements. Who and what qualifies as research and development (R&D) is much broader than most realize. Activities and costs related with developing or improving a product and/or process often qualify for R&D tax credits. Furthermore, engineering, design, testing, and programming are now included as Qualified Research Activities (QRE).
The benefits of having an R&D Tax Credit Study performed would be:
- Dollar for dollar credit against taxes owed or previously paid
- Carry forward credit for future profitable years
- Immediate increase in company cash flow
- Credit average is over $25,000 per $1,000,000 in total company payroll
An initial consultation is done over the phone with one of our R&D Specialists to identify potential Qualified Research Expenditures (QRE). If qualifications are identified, will collect an authorization to begin working on the client’s behalf. No fee is charged until credits are identified and utilization is verified with the client’s accounting representation.
Employee Retention Tax Credits
The Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERC) program was created by Congress to help employers affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic. Employers are now allowed to access both the PPP and the ERC.
The ERC us a refundable payroll tax-credit.Up to $5,000 per employee for 202 and up to $28,000 per employee for 2021. If an employer had a significant decline in revenues or had to fully suspend business operations due to government orders, they qualify for ERC.
**Significant decline in revenue is defined as:
- For 2020 a 50% decline in revenues in any quarter compared to the same quarter in 2019.
- For 2021 a 20% decline in revenues in any quarter compared to the same quarter in 2019. ERC ends when the quarterly revenue in 2020 exceeds 80% for the same quarter in 2019.
**If the employer does not meet the revenue threshold, they may still qualify if they experienced either a partial or full shut-down of business operations.
2020 Credit Amount:
- 50% of up to $10,000 qualified wages per year for full-time employees
- Max credit of %5,000 per employee
- Wages total cannot include those paid by foreign PPP loan proceeds
2021 Credit Amount:
- 70% of up to $10,000 qualified wages per quarter for all of 2021 quarters
Max credit of $28,000 per employee
What we do:
- Determine and document qualifications for ERC
- Calculate the ERC, including the forgiven PPP amount if applicable
- File the relevant documents with the iRS
