About
Richard Moore
The CRA employed me from 1996 to 2000 to audit hundreds of taxpayers’ SR&ED claims in software, hardware, IT, and multimedia. I’m an Electrical Engineer MBA, founded 6 high-tech startups, worked at IBM, Blackberry and NorthernTelecom. I taught at Simon Fraser University and the University of British Columbia, University of Victoria, and commercialized research at the University of Waterloo.
29 years SR&ED experience:
years auditing SR&ED claims
years helping clients
The CRA has approved:
SR&ED claims by

Simplify the CRA's approval process, and save a LOT of time
CRA hired me and 2 dozen experienced technology specialists to establish SR&ED policies by interpreting Canada’s Income Tax Act during the late 1990s. Also I was an “Expert Witness” on behalf of CRA in disputes with taxpayers in the Department of Justice’s Special Investigations Unit.

Understand the CRA's perspective
We’ll explain to the CRA why your activities qualify for SR&ED, from the CRA’s perspective. Your SR&ED claim is more likely to be approved… without an audit.
The CRA will likely approve your SR&ED claims
We’ll prepare a 4-page explanation for the CRA to understand why your activities qualify for SR&ED, and prepare supporting documentation to be ready to justify your SR&ED claims if we get audited.

Interact with just one person
Most SR&ED consultants require 2 people:
an accountant and a technical writer.
I perform both these functions…
…so you pay less and will receive better service.
