Some tools to help members:

• Pre-claim consultations that allow eligible claimants to work with an SR&ED specialist to determine if their project contains SR&ED work before they submit a claim;
• The SR&ED outreach program, which offers targeted sector-specific presentations and one-on-one presentations to businesses, in addition to hosting general information webinars.

We also provide accessible digital resources to help businesses determine their eligibility, calculate expenditures and prepare their claim. These tools include:

• The Self-Assessment and Learning Tool, which helps claimants find out if their work is likely to qualify for SR&ED tax incentives and estimate their potential claim amount in about 30 minutes or less;
• The SR&ED Client Portal, available within My Business Account, which is a secure, one-stop workspace designed to support claimants throughout the claim process.
