Updated Regulations and Principles for the R&D Tax Incentive

April 20th, 2022

Administration of the R&D Tax Incentive is undertaken in accordance with the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.

The Australian Government has made new versions of 2 legislative instruments under this Act:

  • Industry Research and Development Regulations
  • Industry Research and Development Decision-making Principles

The previous versions of these instruments had sunset clauses that were due to automatically expire this year.

The instruments have been remade, and remain broadly the same as was previously in place.

The main notable change is that extensions of time for submissions related to the R&D Tax Incentive are now typically limited to 92 days, rather than 3 months. This means the period of extension is uniform, regardless of the month in which the application for an extension of time is made.

I have been using Swanson Reed for my clients for more than a decade.  Having a specialist firm that can provide practical and commercial advice that produces real outcomes is very important and we have received great feedback from our clients.
Highly recommended.

The Team at Swanson Reed are very experienced R&D Tax Advisors and gave us ongoing support with all of our R&D Claims, the consultants ensured we were always working with current legislative guidelines, gave us assistance with compiling technical and government documentation and went out their way to ensure they were with us for the entire process from beginning to end.  Highly recommended to anyone who needs assistance with working through what can at times be a daunting process.

We can highly recommend Swanson and Reed as an R & D accountant. We have worked with them for several years now as they make our R & D claim so easy and communicate quickly with both us and our accountant.
