What if a tax return requires additional documentation?

Business Tax Collection can show when a tax return requires additional documentation. When you create a tax return for a tax return item that requires additional documentation, you will be prompted to verify that the documents were submitted and the file amount is approved.

Additional documentation required to file a tax return refers to any supporting records or forms that must be submitted along with the return to verify reported information. These documents help confirm that the tax return is complete, accurate, and compliant with filing requirements.

Examples may include financial statements, sales records, exemption certificates, schedules, worksheets, permits, or other supporting documentation required by the tax authority. The specific documents needed can vary depending on the tax type, business activity, and local filing requirements.

4. Click to select the tax return type that requires additional documentation.
