SR&ED Eligibility & Documentation
Understanding SR&ED eligibility and documentation requirements is essential for maximizing your claim value. Our SR&ED claims Vancouver services help you navigate the complex requirements and ensure proper documentation.
Common Eligibility Themes
Eligible SR&ED work typically involves scientific or technological advancement, technical uncertainty, and systematic investigation. Common themes include developing new products or processes, improving existing technology, solving technical problems, and advancing scientific knowledge. Work that involves routine engineering, market research, or commercial production is generally not eligible. Our Corporate Tax Planning Services can help integrate SR&ED credits into your overall tax strategy.
Qualifying costs include salaries and wages for employees directly engaged in SR&ED work, materials consumed or transformed in the process, and a portion of overhead costs. Proper cost tracking and documentation are critical for maximizing eligible amounts. Timesheets, project notes, and detailed cost records help support your claim and facilitate CRA review.
Documentation Readiness
Insufficient documentation is a common reason for claim reductions or denials. CRA requires clear evidence of eligible work, technical uncertainty, and systematic investigation. Technical narratives must demonstrate scientific advancement and explain how the work addressed technical challenges. Financial records must clearly link costs to eligible projects. Our Business Accounting Services provide the accurate financial foundation needed for SR&ED cost tracking.
CRA reviews and audits are common for SR&ED claims, particularly for larger amounts or first-time claimants. Our Corporate CRA Audit & Representation services provide expert support for SR&ED reviews, including response preparation, documentation support, and representation throughout the review process. Proper preparation and documentation reduce the likelihood of reviews and help ensure successful outcomes when reviews occur.
