Future updates

  • Research and Development SME tax credit claims: There's an issue affecting apportionment of losses available to surrender where there's a cap on the tax credit. The application may show AUTO instead of a calculated value in the pre-or-post 1 April boxes. We've not yet completed the fix. We intend to release another update to resolve this.
  • We're implementing the Research and Development tax relief changes for accounting periods starting on or after 1 April 2024.
