Is there a limit to the amount of R&D tax credit I can claim for?
Starting from 1 April 2021, HMRC implemented a limit on the R&D tax credit payable to a loss-making SME. The cap sets the maximum R&D tax credits at £20,000, along with three times the total PAYE and National Insurance Contributions (NIC) liability of the company for the year. Companies making a claim for a payable R&D tax credit that is below £20,000 will not be affected by this cap.
