A direct payment from the state after a CPA audit and compliance sign-off. There's no buyer or broker — the headline figure is the cash, paid on the state's timeline.

Gross rebate/grant$220,000
Paid after audit$220,000

Typical timing: ~9 months after audit/filing.

This is an estimate, not advice.

Every number here is an estimate generated from published program rules and your inputs. Programs change with each legislative session, and qualification depends on details a calculator can't see. This is not tax, legal, or financial advice. Before you make a financing decision, confirm everything with the state film office and a qualified CPA and entertainment attorney.
