SR&ED for clinician-scientists
Funding for the research you’re already doing.
If you’re a physician paid through a medical corporation, part of what it pays you for research may come back as a tax credit.

For SR&ED engagements
No fee until the credits arrive
No retainer and no hourly billing. The fee comes out of the credits once they are paid, under terms agreed in writing before any work begins.
Review support included
If the CRA or Revenu Québec has questions about the claim, Ethan answers them with you at no extra cost.
A claim package for your accountant
You and your accountant receive the research report, eligible cost schedules and credit calculations to review before filing. Your accountant files the corporate tax return as usual.
