AU Tax - Option to show TFN when printing return at any time
At the moment, we can only print the tax return to show the TFN before changing the status to out-for-sign. The option should be available at all times to enable printing the tax return with the TFN when required. We have received a few requests from banks asking for the tax return with the TFN, but we aren't able to reprint it once it is lodged.
Hi Ribert, thanks for highlighting this. We can see how being able to print or download a lodged tax return with the TFN visible could be helpful when clients need to provide documents to banks or other third parties.
Currently, the option to display the TFN is only available before the return progresses beyond certain stages of the workflow. Once lodged, the TFN is masked on generated copies to help protect sensitive information.
I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If there are particular scenarios where you regularly need to reproduce lodged returns with the TFN visible, we'd appreciate hearing more about those use cases.
