Adding Representative Assessee


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the process of adding a representative assessee to the Income Tax e-filing portal following the passing of a client's father. It confirms that the legal heir's ID should be used for logging in and that the deceased person's ITR must be filed only after the representative assessee has been successfully added and approved on the portal. The legal heir will also use their profile to file the deceased's ITR.
