New: request for administrative review – SR & ED

The CRA wants to improve the timeliness and consistency of the administrative review process for SR & ED.

The CRA has announced a new form, the RS532 , which will be used to request an administrative review of a claim SR & ED.

The applications will be centralized at a ” National SR&ED Administrative Review Intake Centre ” but the Deputy Directors of the regions will have the responsibility to decide whether they confirm the decision or not.

 

The question is whether this new protocol will achieve the goal of accelerating the administrative review process.

Note: This is not a second technical review, but rather a review of all information available to the CRA to ensure that the request was examined in full accordance with current policies and procedures.
