Correcting reports
If there are errors in the data you have reported, correct the data. Errors are always corrected by the payer. The Incomes Register or the income earner cannot correct the data for you.
Submit a replacement report if you have reported income incorrectly or paid too much income, for example. Cancel a submitted report if you have reported an incorrect personal identity code or payment date, for example.
