Interested businesses and investors need to know that there are specific limitations and deadlines that need to be met. This includes a two-step process with starts with the business submitting Form QBA at least 90 days prior to the issuance of equity or subordinated debt, and then the issuing a copy of the Virginia Department of Taxation certification to each investor/taxpayer, who must then submit their own application on Form EDC before April 1 of the following calendar year.
