SR&ED Request

Did you know that as a business, you are entitled to several grants and tax credits to help you in the realization of your projects? To take advantage of them, however, you must fill out all kinds of forms and requests, as well as meet several criteria that can be very complicated. You have your own specific area of expertise; we have ours. Let us help you demystify grant and tax credit requests, and thus, avoid many hours of work.

What you need to know about SR&ED

Every year, more than 20,000 Canadian companies receive financial incentives from the SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) tax credit. Indeed, companies in all sectors of activity can benefit from it provided they meet certain criteria. And if your company conducts projects with activities related to pure research, applied research, or experimental development, you could be entitled to it.

The decision-making entity, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) in this case, ensures that claims are verified and requires contemporaneous documentation of work performed, namely a register of hypotheses developed and tested, test reports, and timesheets, to name a few. So make sure you have everything in your possession and document your process as much as possible during the work and not after the fact. To discover more about the specifics of this tax credit, feel free to consult our SR&ED page dedicated for this purpose.
