Faceless assessments.

Most scrutiny and many other assessments are now faceless: all communication is online through the e-filing portal, and you do not know who the officer is. Before an adverse order, you are usually given a show-cause notice or draft order and a chance to reply. A video hearing can be requested in many cases.

Protecting your position.

  • Answer what is askedClear, complete replies reduce follow-up questions.
  • Evidence on recordDocuments filed during assessment are easier to rely on in appeal.
  • Legal objectionsRaised early, such as time limits or jurisdiction.
  • Show-cause repliesEvery proposed addition answered before the order.
