AE/AO Tax Manager 5.4.32 templates hotfix (New Zealand)

Release date—25 February 2020

Release notes

From 1 March 2020, IR will stop accepting payment by cheque. See we're moving on from cheques on the IR website.

This Tax Manager hotfix includes updated tax notice templates. They now print in plain paper format because we’ve removed the IR901DL watermark.

We strongly recommend you install this hotfix so you have up-to-date Tax Manager templates.

For tax notices with a due date of 1 March 2020 or later, use the updated templates rather than the pre-printed IR901DL stationery.

Follow the instructions in KB49545239 to take a copy of your templates before running this hotfix.
