What are the outcomes of an R&D claim that has errors?
Having an incomplete R&D claim application could lead to HMRC considering whether your business should incur penalties for carelessness or negligence. This could be the case if your R&D claim is not robust at the time that it is submitted. If errors are identified during the enquiry process and the inspector’s judgement is that the claim should not be settled, then there are several next steps to be taken.
