5. How to claim the Creative credit – Data entry, Calculation and Tax Reconciliation and next to ‘Creative Tax Credit’ box 540 and Edit. The row you had filled in earlier and IF the company is loss making AND you have the relevant periods – the box will be available and enter in the Creative tax credit value and OK. This fills in box 540 and on the Tax return Box 885.

IF this row ‘is greyed out’ then the company is not loss making and you cannot claim Creative credit.

6. If you get a warning like this when entering the credit, then BT has auto-calculated what maximum credit claim can be used (it checks this against the enhanced expenditure value) and it will auto correct it. You cannot make a claim if it is above the allowed %.

7. 2022 onwards HMRC have updated the Creative Tax credit rates to 45/50% (with the IRIS update 22.2.0). IRIS BT will also allow users to enter values to be entered as PRE and POST entries if your period straddles the HMRC date as it has to use the old 2021 rates and new 2022 rates. Do note the CT600 Tax return will not show any pre and post values, it will always show the total calculation.
