Eligibility review
We map projects and activities against SR&ED criteria before time is spent preparing the claim.
Scientific Research & Experimental Development
Turn experimental work into a stronger SR&ED claim.
End-to-end technical and financial support for Canadian companies working through technological uncertainty.
Could your project qualify?
Look for uncertainty, experimentation and advancement.
A project may fit the SR&ED program when available knowledge could not readily resolve a technological problem and your team used a systematic investigation to pursue an advancement.
Commercial success is not required. Abandoned or unsuccessful work may still contain eligible SR&ED activities.
Common signals
- You built or tested prototypes
- Standard methods did not work
- You compared alternatives through trials
- Results changed the team’s technical knowledge
- Staff recorded tests, revisions or findings
Our scope
Claim support from both sides of the file.
Technical narrative
Structured interviews and evidence reviews turn complex experimental work into a clear project story.
Financial preparation
We identify and organize eligible salaries, contractor costs, materials and overhead methods.
Documentation habits
Practical systems help teams preserve evidence during the year instead of reconstructing it later.
Claim coordination
Technical and financial content is aligned with the corporate tax filing and relevant deadlines.
Review support
When questions arise, we help organize responses and explain the work with consistency.
Frequently asked
SR&ED questions, answered plainly.
Does routine product development qualify?
Not by itself. The qualifying portion is the systematic work addressing a technological uncertainty that standard practice could not readily solve.
Can a failed project qualify?
Potentially, yes. SR&ED evaluates the experimental process and pursuit of advancement, not commercial success.
What records should we keep?
Version history, test results, design notes, tickets, timesheets, meeting notes, prototypes and contemporaneous financial records can all help.
When is the filing deadline?
SR&ED reporting deadlines depend on your tax year and circumstances. Contact an advisor early so the applicable deadline can be confirmed.
