Confirm Lodgment Details dialog

Before preparing an Amendment, necessary functions have to be performed for the Return to be amended. The status indicates the progress of the return:

• Lodged

• Sent to the ATO via paper or ELS

• Validated by the ATO electronically

Lodged: When ticked this checkbox indicates that the status of the return is ‘Lodged’. If the return was lodged from your Tax Ledger via ELS and the Validation report opened and read, this box will already be ticked. For those returns where you did not lodge the original but are amending one previously lodged by another Agent, you may update the status to lodged manually and tick this box.

Sent to the ATO via ELS: If the return was lodged from your Tax Ledger via ELS and the Validation report opened and read, this box will already be ticked. If you did not lodge the original return but are lodging the amendment to it, then you may tick this box.

Validated by the ATO electronically: If the return was lodged from your Tax Ledger via ELS and the Validation report opened and read, this box will already be ticked. If you did not lodge the original return but are lodging the amendment to it, then you may tick this box.

The system has detected that the return has not been printed: Print Return: This checkbox is provided as a courtesy in case you needed to store a copy of the printed return either electronically or as a paper copy. Printing hard copies of returns that are lodged via ELS is at your discretion.
