Recapture Your R&D Expenditures
R&D is essential: it helps you innovate new products, and to surpass your competition. But how do you recover the lost profit from the R&D cost center?
Fortunately, there is the Canadian government’s innovation tax credit, known as SR&ED, designed to inject money onto your bottom line in proportion to what was spend on research and development.
Get paid up to 64% of qualified expenditures that advance technology in some way (Ontario, varies slightly by province). In most cases this is paid by a cheque from the Canadian government that the corporation can spend however it deems fit, including further R&D, for which you can once again claim SR&ED.
Like any government program, there are numerous rules and unwritten best practices to be followed to qualify the SR&ED filing and reduce the chances of an audit. That is why SR&ED Clinic is here to assist you with your SR&ED filings, saving you a great deal of time and effort and ensuring the claim is solid and correctly prepared.
