Income Tax - Return Filing - Help at Home
DO you have a problem in filing your Income Tax Return? A Tax return Preparer will visit your home and assist you in preparing the return at a nominal cost not exceeding Rs. 250/-
To make the Income Tax Return filing experience even more convenient, the Income Tax Department has started two more taxpayer friendly initiatives 'Register for Home Visit' and 'Online Tax Help'. To avail these facilities, a taxpayer must visit the website www.trpscheme.com and take help of trained professionals either online or at their homes. The taxpayer can choose between ‘online help' or ‘home visit'.
The online query will be resolved by tax experts through Email or Phone within 24 hours.
Under the Home Visit Scheme, a Tax Return Preparer (TRP) will visit the taxpayer and render assistance. The facility is aimed to facilitate taxpayers in filing their return and thereby reducing their cost of compliance. The TRPs are allowed to collect fee from the taxpayers as per the TRP notification subject to a maximum of Rs. 250 per return preparation. The facility for home visit by TRPs is at present made available in few cities such as Bangalore, Chennai, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, New Delhi, and Patna. The facility would be extended to more cities during the next phase.
You can call TRP scheme call centre 1800-10-23738 for further information regarding these initiatives.
