Creative BC has implemented comprehensive updates to essential Film Incentive BC (FIBC) and Production Services Tax Credit (PSTC) program application forms and templates. These revisions reflect recent legislative amendments made in March 2025 to British Columbia’s motion picture tax credit programs and ensure applicants are equipped with the most current and relevant resources tailored to their specific production requirements.
Production Schedules
To better support different production types, a set of more tailored production schedule forms has been created. Use of Creative BC’s Production Schedule forms is required.
Schedule of B.C./Non-B.C. Costs
To better support data validation and consistency, the FIBC Schedule of B.C./Non-B.C. Costs template has been updated, and a new PSTC Schedule of B.C./Non-B.C. Costs template has been added. PSTC applications now require a breakdown of the estimated total B.C. production costs (a.k.a. the “B.C. Spend”). Use of these templates is optional but recommended.

Regional and Distant Location Breakdown
The Regional and Distant Location Breakdown template is now separated by program, with more detailed instructions. Use of these templates is optional but recommended.
Application Checklists
All checklists have also been revised to align with the recent legislative changes to B.C.’s motion picture tax credit programs.
Please ensure to use the latest forms for each application. Contact the Motion Picture Tax Credits department directly with any questions or concerns at taxteam@creativebc.com.
