Schedule 388, Manitoba Film and Video Production Tax Credit

Part 7 – Frequent filming bonus tax credit
Part 8 – Rural bonus tax credit
Part 9 – Producer bonus tax credit

These three credits are calculated based on the total eligible salaries entered on line 650 of Part 6, “Basic tax credit.” Since the program is not able to determine the corporation’s eligibility to those credits, you must enter the amount on line 650 in each appropriate section in order for the corporation to benefit from the corresponding credit. Entering an amount confirms that the corporation is eligible for the credit concerned. Therefore, make sure it qualifies for this credit before entering an amount in one of the above-mentioned sections.
