No direct Rule certified in Phase 1. Check notifications, circulars, forms and corresponding State law.

The mapping is a legal concordance, not a round-robin related-link list. It is limited to instruments certified in this phase.

Practical example

A professional first identifies whether the facts trigger rule 83, fixes the relevant period, checks the mapped subordinate instruments and preserves evidence before filing or advising.

Professional alert

• Do not share unrestricted portal credentials; use formal authorisation. • Affirmative consent is required for specified high-impact applications. • Deemed confirmation for statements does not transfer legal responsibility from the taxpayer.
