Request for verification of claim of exemption

572 views 1 replies

Hi friends,

A salaried client has received a notice from th IT dept for verification of HRA claim. She claimed HRA from her employer while the TDS deducted is done against her husband's TAN. He has not claimed exemption in his return. The IT email asks to verify this and efile revised return if required. Since no revised return needs to be filed, how do I address this with the dept. On the portal it does not show under any proceedings that can be replied to. Please help on how to resolve this. Is any reply required? What is the recommended way forward.

Here's a step-by-step plan to address the issue:

Step 1: Verify the Notice Details - Check the notice for any specific requirements or documents requested. - Ensure you have all relevant documents, including: - HRA claim documents - TDS certificates - Husband's tax returns

 Step 2: Draft a Response - Prepare a clear and concise response explaining the situation. - Mention that no revised return is required, as the husband didn't claim the exemption. - Offer to provide supporting documents, if needed.

Step 3: Send Response via Email - Send the response to the email address mentioned in the notice. - Keep a record of the email, including the date and time sent.

Step 4: Follow-up (If Necessary) - If you don't receive a response or acknowledgment within 7-10 days, consider sending a follow-up email. - You can also try contacting the IT department's helpline or the assessing officer's contact number.

Key Considerations: - *Documentation*: Keep all relevant documents handy to support your response.
