Your Company Qualifies For A Sr Ed Tax Credit Financing - Can You Factor Sred? Yes You Can!

Many companies in Canada taking advantage of the sred program (formally called the

Scientific Research and Experimental Development) are surprised to find that they can in effect ' cash flow ' or 'monetize' that claim into the liquid gold business calls cash flow.

So, does sred financing make sense for your firm - by the way, we think it does... and how can you ensure you qualify? Let's ensure we cover off some of the basics around those issues in order for you to determine if sred finance makes sense for you.

If we go back to square one it all comes down to knowing what the program is, ensuring you qualify, and then having a claim to submit. SRED claims are submitted when you file your year end tax return. If you have never filed a sred claim 2 key points immediately are a focus of discussion when we meet with clients - first of all you have to have the technical expertise to prepare a claim.

Secondly, in the last year or so the government has altered the program in order to make submission more expeditious. You of course need to be aware of the new format guidelines, which in effect simplify your preparation and filing process.

In our opinion, and most agree we are quite sure, you want a sred consultant to prepare your claim. These are folks in private industry who specialize in preparing claims, and more often than not they have done work in your industry. We are quite sure we have your agreement than an expert in any industry is better than a rookie.

Technically your accountant could prepare you claim, but we're often surprised to hear clients tell us that their accountant was not even aware of the program!

In order to receive funds for your sred credit - and by the way these funds are non - repayable (yes you heard us correctly) you simply need to file a qualified claim.

Waiting for your refund is what sr Ed tax credit finance is all about. Sred financing is based on the premise that your firm could use the cash flow today, instead of waiting for weeks, months, or even a year in some cases.

So how do you factor, or discount, or cash flow, or monetize that sred claim. (All those terms mean the same thing). It's a simply process; locate a specialist in Canadian business financing who can assist you in preparing a simply application that includes your sred claim and basic financial application info. Claims are generally financed at 70% loan to value, meaning the 30% is held back as a buffer. No payments are made on the financing and the final cheque from the government is netted against your advance.In the meantime you can make use of those funds for any general corporate purpose.

So - do you qualify for a sred tax credit financing - if you have a claim you do? Should you consider a factor or finance scenario around your claim - that's for you to decide and for us to suggest. And by the way, if you don't need cash or working capital, then don't finance the claim - but who is in that position these days?
