                CANCER CLINICAL TRIAL TAX CREDIT CLAIM FORM
                                                               Page 1 of 2
Who May Claim This Credit:  For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2012, but before January 1, 2016, a taxpayer who files an 
individual New Mexico income tax return, who is not a dependent of another taxpayer, who is an oncologist that is a physician licensed 
pursuant to the Medical Practice Act (Section 61-6-1 NMSA 1978) and whose practice is located in rural New Mexico may claim a tax 
credit of $1,000 for each patient participating in a cancer clinical trial under the physician’s supervision during the tax year, but not to 
exceed $4,000 for all cancer clinical trials conducted by that physician. The credit may only be claimed for the tax year in which the physi-
cian participates as an investigator in a clinical trial. The credit may not be carried forward to another year, or refunded. This credit can 
only be claimed against personal income tax owed by the licensed physician. Married individuals who file separate returns for a tax year 
in which they could have filed a joint return may each only claim one-half of the tax credit that would have been allowed on a joint return.
Only a qualified licensed physician may claim the credit. If the physician belongs to a business association in which one or more members 
qualifies for a cancer clinical trial tax credit, the credit is to be equally apportioned between the eligible physicians conducting, supervising 
or participating in the cancer clinical trial for which the credit is allowed. If not apportioned equally, provide an explanation in the space 
provided in Part III, Section 2. The total cancer clinical trial tax credit allowed for all the members of a partnership or business association 
shall not exceed the amount of credit that could have been claimed by one qualified physician. 
When claiming the cancer clinical trial tax credit, this form must accompany the personal income tax or fiduciary income tax return to which 
the taxpayer wishes to apply the credit and mailed to the address on the tax return. For assistance call 505-827-1746.
