SRJ Chartered Professional Accountants Empower Canadian Startups to Maximize SR&ED Tax Credits and Fuel Innovation

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / As Canadian startups continue to push the boundaries of innovation, SRJ Chartered Professional Accountants (SRJCA) is helping them fuel that momentum by unlocking one of the country's most powerful funding tools: the SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) tax credit program.

Designed to reward companies investing in research and development, the SR&ED program can return up to 35% of qualifying R&D expenditures-even for pre-revenue startups. Yet, many innovative businesses fail to claim the full benefit due to complex eligibility criteria and documentation requirements.

SRJCA is bridging that gap.

With specialized experience in tech, engineering, and healthcare, SRJ Chartered Professional Accountants supports startups by identifying hidden opportunities in their development processes and simplifying the claims process from end to end.

"We make SR&ED accessible, not intimidating," said Shayan Rashid, Partner at SRJCA. "Our mission is to help founders stay focused on building their product, while we ensure they get every dollar they deserve."

Helping Startups Reclaim Capital and Extend Their Runway

From software coding and product prototyping to failed experiments and process improvements, many day-to-day startup activities may qualify for SR&ED-but often go unclaimed. SRJCA helps founders:

  • Uncover eligible R&D efforts

  • Compile compliant technical and financial documentation

  • Maximize claim value with confidence in CRA audits

  • Avoid missed deadlines and costly errors

Real Funding, Not Just Tax Deductions

For Canadian-controlled private corporations (CCPCs), the SR&ED credit is often refundable-meaning startups can receive a cash infusion directly, rather than waiting to turn a profit.

In an ecosystem where cash flow can make or break innovation, SRJCA's personalized, startup-friendly services offer a strategic edge for founders looking to grow.
