SR&ED – Scientific Research & Experimental Development
The SR&ED program is a Canadian tax incentive program that encourages businesses to conduct research and development in Canada. It provides tax credits or refunds for eligible work that advances scientific or technological knowledge, especially where there is uncertainty that cannot be resolved through standard practice. To encourage businesses to undertake SR&ED activities in Canada, the Federal Government provides one of the most generous R&D cash refund / tax incentive programs in the world.
In combination with various provincial programs, companies may recover up to 68% of the qualified cost. And EVAMAX can help you to recover those costs.
