Industry Partnership

Inland Revenue's Industry Partnership team is forming relationships with certain industries, so we can help industry members with their taxes. The industries we work with conduct much of their business in cash, so there is the opportunity for some people to do under-the-table jobs.

Listed research providers

An LRP is a research provider who has completed our listing process. They provide systematic, investigative and experimental (SIE) research and development (R&D) services under contract to other businesses. An LRP conducts R&D on behalf of non-associated businesses. A business whose eligible R&D expenditure is likely to be less than $20,000 per annum can only qualify for the R&D tax credit if it uses an LRP to do this research.

Organisations providing ACC attendant care services
