Identify the scope of the R & D tax credits claim and any specific issues which impact the claim e.g. a qualifying project with qualifying costs, and which scheme to claim under? What are the deadlines? Rough assessment of the benefit and outline of the detailed process below.
2. Project Narratives
Establish the baseline from where the advance in knowledge or capability in a field of science or technology is sought. Describe the advance. Describe the scientific and/or technological uncertainties, and how they were overcome or how the resolution was attempted. Failed projects can qualify for R & D Tax credits – the advance does not have to be achieved to claim R & D tax credits.
