Project eligibility
We discuss the technical advance sought and uncertainties encountered with your project leads. Routine development does not automatically qualify.
Home / R&D tax relief
Find out whether your development work supports an R&D claim.
A credible claim starts with the project and the evidence. We work with your technical team to assess eligibility, review costs and prepare the required submissions.

Questions you may have
Does developing new software automatically qualify?
No. The work must meet the tax definition of R&D, including the relevant scientific or technological advance and uncertainty. We assess the technical facts rather than the product label.
Will my company receive a cash repayment?
Not necessarily. The outcome depends on eligibility, scheme rules, your tax position and applicable restrictions. We explain the estimated result after reviewing the evidence.
What needs to happen before filing?
We check whether advance claim notification is required and the relevant deadline. The Additional Information Form must be submitted before the Corporation Tax return containing the claim.
