Controlled groups.—All members of a

controlled group of corporations (within

the meaning of section 52(a)) and all

persons under common control (within

the meaning of section 52(b)) are treated

as one person for purposes of the

credit. The group member with the most

eligible access expenditures should

figure the group credit in Part I and skip

Part II.

Eligible access expenditures.—For

purposes of section 44, these

expenditures are amounts paid or

incurred by the eligible small business to

comply with applicable requirements

under the Americans With Disabilities

Act of 1990 (Public Law 101–336).

General Instructions

Section references are to the Internal

Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.

Purpose of Form

Eligible access expenditures include

amounts paid or incurred—

On separate Forms 8826, each

member of the group should skip lines 1

through 5 and enter its share of the

group credit on line 6. Each member

should then complete the remaining

applicable lines (or Form 3800, if

required) on its separate form. Each

member must also attach to its Form

8826 a schedule showing how the group

credit was divided among all members.

The members share the credit in the

same proportion that they contributed

eligible access expenditures.

a. To remove barriers that prevent a

business from being accessible to or

usable by individuals with disabilities;

A partnership or S corporation that is

an eligible small business completes

Part I of the form to figure the credit to

pass through to its partners or

shareholders.

eligible access expenditures may not be

claimed as a deduction in figuring

taxable income, capitalized, or used in

figuring any other credit.

The expenditures must be reasonable

and necessary to accomplish the above

purposes.

Eligible expenditures do not include

expenditures in a above that are paid or

incurred in connection with any facility

first placed in service after November 5,

1990.

Part II

Eligible access expenditures must

meet those standards issued by the

Secretary of the Treasury as agreed to

by the Architectural and Transportation

Barriers Compliance Board and set forth

in regulations. See section 44(c) for

other details.

Line 14.—See section 38(c)(3) for

special rules for married couples filing

separate returns, for controlled corporate

that did not exceed $1 million or had no

more than 30 full-time employees during

the preceding tax year and (b) elects (by

filing Form 8826) to claim the disabled

access credit for the tax year.

Line 16.—If you cannot use part of the

credit because of the tax liability

limitations (line 16 is smaller than line 8),

carry the unused portion back to each

prior tax year that ended after November

4, 1990. Any remaining unused credit is

then carried forward for 15 years. See

the separate Instructions for Form 3800

for details.

Disability.—For an individual, this

means—

a. A physical or mental impairment

that substantially limits one or more of

the major life activities of that individual;

b. A record of such an impairment; or

For purposes of the definition:

c. Being regarded as having such an

impairment.

and allowances made during the tax

that employee is employed at least 30

hours per week for 20 or more calendar

weeks in the tax year.

Part I

Line 1.—Enter total eligible access

expenditures paid or accrued during the

tax year. See Eligible access

expenditures above for a definition and

Line 12.—Enter the tentative minimum

tax (TMT) that was figured on the

appropriate alternative minimum tax

(AMT) form or schedule. Although you

may not owe AMT, you must still

compute the TMT to figure your credit.

Form 8826 is used by an eligible small

business to claim the disabled access

credit. The credit is part of the general

business credit under section 38 and is

figured under the provisions of section

44.

The general business credit consists of

several credits including investment

(Form 3468), jobs (Form 5884), credit for

alcohol used as fuel (Form 6478),

research (Form 6765), low-income

housing (Form 8586), enhanced oil

recovery (Form 8830), disabled access

(Form 8826), and renewable electricity

production (Form 8835).

Complete Part II if you do not have to

file Form 3800.

The Revenue Reconciliation Act of

1993 added the following new credits:

empowerment zone employment credit

(Form 8844), Indian employment credit

(Form 8845), credit for employer social

security taxes paid on certain employee

cash tips (Form 8846), and credit for

contributions to certain community

development corporations (Form 8847).

Generally, the new credits are allowed

for expenditures incurred after

December 31, 1993. See the above

forms and Form 3800, General Business

Credit, for other details.

If you have more than one of the

credits for 1993, a carryback or

carryforward of any of these credits, or a

disabled access credit from a passive

activity, file Form 3800, which is used

instead of Part II of Form 8826 to figure

the tax liability limitation.
