Is Your Company Eligible for SR&ED Tax Credits?
Companies often overlook the benefits of SR&ED Tax Credits because either they are unaware of the program or they are under the mistaken impression that they "don’t do R&D."
To help determine whether your company is eligible, we have prepared a general questionnaire with sample responses as a guide. If the answer to any of the questions is ‘Yes,’ your company may qualify for SR&ED Tax Credits.
Will Your Software or IT Project Qualify?
All SR&ED claims must demonstrate Technological Advancement together with Technological Uncertainty. Demonstrating uncertainty for software or IT projects can sometimes be difficult. This software questionnaire is designed to help assess the Uncertainty of your project.

An essential part of any SR&ED claim is supporting documentation. Examples of appropriate documentation are given in this overview.
