R&D Advance Funding, explained.
If you’ve previously been successful in claiming R&D tax credits, there is a good chance we can offer you an advancement on your next claim.
Overcome cash-flow delays with advance funding
Whilst HMRC do aim to get claims processed and paid within 6 weeks, there can often be delays which prevent your company receiving R&D tax claims in a timely manner. For many businesses, R&D tax credits are crucial to support further development; so, Claim Capital have combined R&D tax credit consultancy with R&D advance loans to create a market leading offering.
Rather than waiting for HMRC to process your claim, we will advance 80% of the claim value upon submission to HMRC. Once HMRC have processed and paid your claim, you simply pay Claim Capital back the advancement plus any fees.
