Do I need to submit any documents or proofs with my Tax Return? A lot tax payers  inquire whether they need to submit any documents, proofs or certificates along with their  income tax  return to the  income tax department . Your  Income Tax  Return is now referred to as an ‘ annexure less ’ return. This means that no documents or proofs have to be attached along with the return.  Many sections of the Act require certificates to be obtained for claiming deductions and tax payers are unsure who to give these certificates to. The relevant proofs and certificates etc are absolutely essential to be obtained, however those must be kept safely by you in your own records, should the Assessing Officer sends a notice and calls for them or you have to justify them under any circumstance. Possibly the only paper document you may have to send is your physical  ITR-V , that too only if you haven’t been able to e-verify your tax return successfully. Once your filing is complete you have

Changes in ITR-1 for FY 2014-15 (AY 2015-16) Here we list down the changes which have been in the Income Tax Return forms, starting with       ITR -1, for financial year 2014-15 (assessment year 2015-16) Change 1  – Introduction of Aadhar Card Number in Return of Income. This Aadhar card number shall be used for EVC system. EVC or Electronic Verification Code shall mean that if one has an Aadhar card number there will be no need to send the physical ITR-V to CPC, Bangalore. The verification of the Return shall take place electronically.

A large number of e-filers skipped this very important process, assuming the job was done once their return was e-filed.
