COM20080 - Assessing: CT pay and file assessments: copy of assessments


If, exceptionally, you need a paper copy of an assessment for a CT Pay and File AP you can take a screen print of it using Function DASS (Display Assessment Details).

You may need a paper copy, for example

  • In an investigation case
Or
  • To provide a copy of the assessment for an agent

The screen print generated is not strictly a copy of the issued assessment. It is a record of the data held on COTAX. However, it is prima facie evidence that the computer issued a notice

  • Containing the figures shown on it
  • To the company on the date indicated

You can present a screen print to the Tribunal (Word 34KB) at an appeal hearing, or provide one in response to any request for a copy of an assessment from the company or the agent.
