We also take care of any queries from the relevant tax authority as enquiry defence is included free-of-charge with every claim we prepare and submit.
For Make UK members already claiming R&D tax relief Visiativ will undertake a desk review of your previous claims and provide an opinion on the potential for their team of engineers and scientists to enhance the value of your future claims. If appropriate they will also offer to revise previous claims with a view to securing an uplift in benefit value.

We can help companies who’ve prepared and submitted claims themselves or using an external provider. We will take responsibility for defending the claim, advising on the best defence strategy, and negotiating with relevant tax authorities until an agreement.
