File held by Inspector

You may only have a dummy file, showing that the main file is held by an Inspector. This may be because the Inspector has accepted a request to not capture the return details. It is important that the return is easily identifiable when filed by the taxpayer.

For this reason, you must agree with the Inspector how the return to be issued manually is to be marked. For example, it may suffice to note it ‘INSP’
