Province guide

RS&DE in Quebec

Quebec companies claim under RS&DE (CRIC) with both federal and Revenu Québec provincial components. We prepare bilingual technical narratives and Quebec schedules alongside the federal T661.

  • RD-1029 — Québec research and development tax credit
  • RD-222 — Québec supplemental schedule for eligible expenditures
  • Coordination with Revenu Québec CRIC / RS&DE provincial rules
