SEIS Advance Assurance: How to Apply, What HMRC Checks and What to File After the Round
SEIS advance assurance is HMRC’s opinion, given before any shares are issued, that a planned SEIS investment is likely to qualify for the scheme. A company applies online with its business plan, forecasts, articles and details of its prospective investors, and gets back a letter it can show those investors.
It isn’t required by law, and it doesn’t replace the paperwork after the round. Once the shares are issued, the company still files a compliance statement, form SEIS1, and only then can investors get the SEIS3 certificate they need to claim their relief.
