Income Tax Notice Reply
Review of income-tax communications and preparation of factual and legal responses.
Identify the period and process
We review the exact communication, relevant assessment or tax period and statutory context. This matters where legislation and transitional provisions differ. The output may be a note on the questions to address and the records needed.
Review the supporting record
Work can include review of return history, transaction documents, financial explanations and prior correspondence. Accounting work and certifications are undertaken by separately engaged professionals where required.
Draft the response
We assist with legal research and a draft reply that addresses the questions raised and refers to the available evidence. An order or subsequent communication may require additional advice and a new scope of work.
