very simple & short,
print out your income tax return of 2015, attach all relevant documents which are available, skip which does not apply upon you.
print out the copy of the notice received.
write a covering letter stating your submission of documents as enclosures and personally visit the respective office, PA will ask you reason for visit tell him that you have received a notice and wish to meet the officer in person to present all documents. he will ask you to write your name over a slip and then you wait , stay calm and stay composed, when you meet the officer after hand shake present the notice then present your whole bunch, He will ask you to sit down and politely ask if you would like to have cup of tea, he will rummage through your bank statements while waiting for tea. he will start asking your activities and what are your hobbies besides the work you do to make living.
if there is any banking figure entry which is abruptly large and no further large sums close to those digits appear again through out, you shall be having enough supporting argument for spike., that does not correspond or reflect again.
in 85% of audit cases abrupt financial spikes create a flag which alert the respective commissioner and they are required to serve notice by law. There is nothing to be pissed about or be upset, treat it casual and be there with copies of document applicable to you. skip all other, thats' damn standard format cut paste class.
i handle them all year across for family, some at FBR Karachi consider me as Income tax lawyer while i've never been to any law school but passion to study to confront lawless ness is genetic trait.
