Message regarding the public (severed) version of the Claim Review Manual for Research and Technology Advisors

Date: June 2010

The Claim Review Manual for Research and Technology Advisors is a new SR&ED internal procedural manual.

Effective June 1, 2010, the Claim Review Manual and The SR&ED Technical Review: A Guide for Claimants (Draft) cancel and replace the Guide to Conducting a Scientific Research and Experimental Development Review Part 1: The Technical Review dated January 14, 2000.

The Claim Review Manual is written for Research and Technology Advisors (RTAs) and outlines their requirements concerning review procedures. The SR&ED Technical Review: A Guide for Claimants (Draft) is a concise version of The Claim Review Manual. However, it is written from the perspective of the claimants who would like an overview of the claim review process to help them better prepare for the technical review.

SR&ED Stakeholders may provide their comments on The SR&ED Technical Review: A Guide for Claimants (Draft).
