Brief answer: Use trackable mail such as Letter Pack Plus, attach a materials checklist, ensure clear copies, and do not omit My Number or refund account fields.
Detailed explanation
Suggested checklist: (1) Correction Request form and tax return originals/copies; (2) withholding slip copy; (3) residence card copy; (4) notarized documents and remittance proof organized by year; (5) cover note with phone and email. Avoid folding or staining; bind neatly in A4 format. Photocopy the full set before mailing. Use registered or Letter Pack for tracking. Common returns are wrong address or missing pages—verify via find-tax-office-postcode. Supplemental materials must be submitted within deadlines; otherwise filing may not be accepted.
