2020 Pre-filling report - importing data into tax agent software specification

The 2020 pre-filling report focuses on simplifying and consolidating the 2019 product, including by removing extraneous sections and reordering data.

This report is a tool tax agents use to assist them in completing a taxpayer’s income tax return. The report does not list all sources of income and should not be relied upon exclusively.

The benefits of displaying or importing pre-filling information are:

• making it easier to prepare returns by providing income, deduction and tax withheld details
• more certainty about the income and deduction details thereby reducing the chance of mistakes, and
• saving time as tax agents can verify details with the client.
