SR & ED

Looking to generate large tax refunds for your business by uncovering hidden, easy to miss expenses that your company already incurred to improve your products and technology? We can use these claimable expenses to get large refunds from the government through a SR&ED tax credit program.

SR&ED (Scientific Research & Experimental Development) is a federal tax incentive program run by the CRA that is aimed to reward businesses that invest in improving their products and processes.

It allows you to get as a cash tax refund up to 59% of eligible expenses that you spend on salaries, materials, subcontractors and many other things related to modifying your products, technologies or operations. 

Even though the SR&ED program is well known, many decide not to take advantage of it because they wrongly believe that their company does not have any expenses eligible for SR&ED refunds.

Do not miss out on the opportunity to identify such eligible expenses and put tens of thousands of dollars back into your business!

Some of the most common activities that are missed by business owners that can be converted into a SR&ED refunds from the CRA are:

  • Introducing new products 
  • Changing existing products to address a specific market need
  • Innovating existing or introducing new equipment to your operations
  • Trying to increase the shelf life of your products 
  • Making any changes to your product packaging 
  • Working to automate or improve your production process 

……and many other activities that would generate successful refunds.
