Analysis
Adding a representative means the CA can see and answer the notice without your password. The authorisation is set up from your login and the CA accepts it from theirs. You remain responsible for what is filed, so review the corrected return before it goes. If time is short, it may be quicker to share an OTP during a working session than to set up authorisation.

- Decide whether to authorise the CA or work together on your login.
- If authorising, add the CA under Authorised Partners and wait for acceptance.
- Review the corrected return the CA prepares.
- Confirm the CA has submitted and send you the acknowledgement.
