Great question! Here's a concise answer for your query on revising TDS returns and checking their processing status:
---
### 1. **Time Limit for Revising TDS Return**
* You can revise a TDS return **only if it has not yet been processed by the CPC (Centralized Processing Cell)**. * Once the return is processed, **revisions are not allowed**. * Generally, the processing happens within a few weeks after filing, so it's best to revise as soon as you spot errors.
---
### 2. **Revising Entries Already Claimed by Deductee**
* You **can revise entries even if the deductee has already claimed the TDS in their Income Tax Return**. * However, the deductee may have to correct their return later if the TDS credit changes due to your revision.

### 3. **How to Check the Processing Status of Your TDS Return**
* **Log in to the TRACES portal** ([https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/](https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/)) using your TAN credentials. * Go to the **"Statements / Payments"** tab. * Click on **"View Returns / Forms"**. * The status will be shown as either:
* **Processed** (if CPC has processed it) * **Pending / Under Process** (if CPC is yet to process) * **Returned** (if there are errors that need correction)

If your return shows **Processed**, you cannot revise that particular return.
