SR&ED Eligibility
Wondering if your business qualifies for SR&ED? To be eligible, you’ll need to meet specific criteria, like the type of R&D projects you’re working on, your company’s structure, and how well you adhere to compliance standards.
SR&ED Requirements
Submitting an SR&ED claim doesn’t have to be daunting if you know what’s expected. Here’s what you’ll need to prepare:
Technical Information
Make sure to provide detailed descriptions of your R&D activities. Clear documentation is key to showing how your work meets the program’s requirements.
Financial Information
Keep accurate records of all costs, including wages, materials, and subcontractor expenses. These details are essential for justifying your claim.
Tax Savings
One of the biggest perks of SR&ED is the tax savings. If your claim is successful, you can enjoy significant credits that directly benefit your bottom line.
Industries That Qualify for SR&ED
Many industries can take advantage of SR&ED. If your business relies on R&D to innovate and grow, there’s a good chance you qualify.
SR&ED Opportunities in Manufacturing
Manufacturing companies can claim credits for activities like improving processes or developing new products.
IT and Software Development Projects
Whether you’re creating cutting-edge algorithms, developing a new platform, or enhancing an application, IT and software projects are a great fit for SR&ED.
