Facts
A response on e-Proceedings cannot be edited, updated or withdrawn after submission. You can, however, file another response to the same notice while it is open, adding what was missed.
Provisions and law
- Sec 142(1) (now Sec 268(1))Officer can call for a return, accounts, documents or information before making an assessment
Analysis
Submit a second reply titled 'Additional submission' that refers to the first one by date and attaches the missing statement. If the due date has passed, the submit button may still work for officer notices until the proceeding is closed. Keep your additional submissions few and organised; a single complete reply is easier for the officer to read.
Conclusion
- Open the same notice on e-Proceedings
- Click Submit Response again and choose a further or partial response
- Explain that it adds to your earlier reply and attach the document
- Save both acknowledgements
