R&D tax credits – a tax-free income boost
Are you missing out on a tax-free payment from the government? R&D tax credits allow you to offset the cost of R&D activity against your tax bill and also receive a cash lump sum on top. If your business is eligible, you could receive a payment from HMRC within 28 days of making a claim.
