A cross-jurisdiction checklist assembled from the sources, each step attributed. (1) Keep production books apart: separate books of account and a bank account into which financing is deposited and from which costs are paid [telefilm ARR s2]; retain documents five years [telefilm ARR s2.2; cmf appendix b s2.2]. (2) Paper every cost before the work: Screen Australia expects an executed contract dated before the work, with services, engagement period and payment terms, plus a matching valid tax invoice [sa guidelines s2.3 'What does incurred mean?']; Telefilm treats any expense without invoice and proof of payment as inadmissible [telefilm ARR s4.1.1]; Ireland requires documentation per Schedules 2-5 of the Regulations to be in place before claiming [revenue tdm s2.3.2]. (3) Tag each ledger line with phase and core status (UK: pre-production, principal photography and post-production are core; development and distribution are not [crec051000]; Australia: 'making of the film' excludes developing the proposal, arranging finance, distribution and promotion [sa guidelines s2.3 'What does for the making of the film mean?']). (4) Tag territory: UK expenditure is goods and services used or consumed in the UK [crec061100]; QAPE is goods and services provided in Australia, use of Australian land and goods located in Australia [sa guidelines s2.3 'QAPE']; CAVCO requires labour paid to Canadian citizens or residents and notes on non-Canadian costs [cavco s7.05, 7.09.05]; Ireland funnels qualifying expenditure to total cost of production to eligible expenditure in the State [revenue tdm s3.1]. (5) Flag connected or related parties and keep evidence of arm's-length pricing [crec052000; sa guidelines s3.2; cavco s7.09.05; telefilm ARR s4.9]. (6) Apply timing rules: UK excludes amounts unpaid more than 4 months after period end [crec051000]; Australia needs an incurred legal liability, and contracts dated after the financial year generally do not count [sa guidelines s2.3 'What does incurred mean?']; CAVCO counts labour paid within the year or 60 days after year end [cavco s7.03]. (7) Apply caps and tests, then produce the final cost report and the auditor's or reviewer's statement where the threshold requires it (see w2-t04-F05) and assemble the claim file: UK computation, cost breakdown (core/non-core, UK/non-UK, phase), connected-party details and BFI certificate [crec081700]; Australia general ledger, final cost report, QAPE spreadsheet and auditor's statement [sa faqs FAQ 11]. Method not executed by the collector.

Rationale:
Every element is stated in one of the cited rule documents, but no document lays out this combined sequence; the order and the cross-regime merge are the collector's.

Counterevidence:
The regimes are not interchangeable: tests, caps and thresholds differ (F04, F05, F06). UK guidance pages read do not require a statutory audit for the credit claim itself, whereas Australia and Canada do at stated thresholds; BFI requires an auditor's report for certain cultural-test sections.

Uncertainty:
Not executed: no ledger or claim was prepared; New Zealand's rebate was not read. Detailed definitions (e.g. UK 'used or consumed', Australian 'incurred') have exceptions not captured. Not legal or tax advice.
