What’s included in the guide?

WhisperClaims’ experts have created a comprehensive explanation of every piece of the narrative, including:

  • Technical baseline: What is it? How can you best persuade HMRC to accept the claim?
  • Technical advance: What work counts towards R&D? What makes your narrative eligible for a successful claim?
  • Technological uncertainties: How does HMRC define an uncertainty? How can you tailor your response to highlight the contributions to R&D?
  • Technological resolutions: What does HMRC want to see from this section? How should you link this to the above pieces?

We want to give your practice a shoulder to lean on when it comes to your R&D claims.
