A clearer way to claim

Keep building.
Keep the evidence.

Your team’s work lives across project tools, technical documents and financial records. Preparing a claim often means bringing those records together long after the work happened.

mytaxcredits.ie connects the technical story to the underlying costs. See what supports each project, where information is missing, and what needs a decision—before the claim reaches your adviser.

How it works

From everyday records
to a considered claim.

A structured process for your finance team, technical team and tax adviser, with a clear role for each.

01 / Bring the records together

Start with the work
you already have.

Connect your project and accounting tools, and upload supporting documents and payroll records. Organise the source material around the projects and accounting period you want to review.

02 / Build the case

Connect the evidence
to the expenditure.

Review suggested projects, supporting records and cost allocations. Your team confirms the technical context and time spent, while missing information is surfaced for follow-up.

03 / Review and prepare

Bring your adviser
a clearer picture.

Your adviser reviews the technical and financial basis of the claim, raises questions and signs off the completed version. Prepare the claim file and figures for your company’s tax return.

Connected evidence

The detail behind
every decision.

A project summary is more useful when you can see what supports it. Follow the evidence back to the original record, including its author, date and source.

Keep technical explanations, experiments, time allocations and relevant expenditure connected, so your team and adviser can review the same information.

Work with the records your team already keeps.

Bring together development records, project tickets, test reports, invoices and payroll. Review the source material alongside the draft claim instead of searching across separate systems.

Connections and uploads shown reflect the proposed launch scope.

Technology with accountability

AI helps prepare.
People make the judgement.

Use AI to organise records, suggest classifications and draft explanations from linked evidence. Your team reviews the facts. Your adviser assesses the claim.

Suggestions you can inspect.

See the evidence behind a suggested project or cost classification. Accept, amend or reject it with the relevant context in view.

Questions made visible.

Missing evidence and unresolved points stay visible throughout review. A polished draft should never hide an unanswered question.

A record of the review.

Track changes to allocations, costs and narratives. Keep a signed-off version of the claim file so everyone knows what was approved.

What you receive

A claim file.
A clear handover.

Give your finance team and tax adviser an organised record of the claim, with the technical evidence and cost calculations kept together.

The claim is filed through your company’s tax return. The supporting file is retained to explain and substantiate it.

01

Project claim file

Technical narratives, linked evidence, staff allocations and cost schedules arranged for review and retention.

02

CT1 figures and payment schedule

A clear summary of the claim figures and proposed instalments for your accountant or tax adviser to review.

03

Supporting correspondence

Draft pre-filing notifications and subcontractor notices where relevant, ready for review before they are sent.

Before you begin

Good questions.
Clear answers.

How do I know whether our work could qualify?

Start with the scientific or technological problem your team was trying to solve, the uncertainty involved and the investigation undertaken. Developing a product or writing software does not, by itself, establish eligibility. Your adviser needs to assess the activities and supporting evidence against the Irish rules.

We have never claimed before. Where do we start?

Begin with your accounting period, a summary of the projects and the records available. First-time claims can have additional notification requirements, so discuss the timing with your adviser before choosing a filing date.

Can we work with our existing accountant?

The proposed workflow is designed to bring your finance team, technical team and adviser into the same review process. The claim file and CT1 figures provide a structured handover to the accountant or tax adviser responsible for your return.

Does the platform file the claim with Revenue?

No. mytaxcredits.ie prepares supporting documentation and claim figures for review. Your company or authorised tax agent files the corporation tax return through ROS.

How much could we claim?

The amount depends on your qualifying activities, eligible expenditure, accounting period and applicable rules. A useful estimate starts with your actual projects and costs, then becomes more precise as the evidence and allocations are reviewed.

What does it cost?

We will discuss the scope of your claim and provide a fee proposal before you commit. Pricing will set out what is included in preparation and adviser review, together with any separately agreed support.
