| |
(a) all the particular sources from which his income arises, and the particular amount arising from each source;
|
| |
(b) all particulars of any yearly interest or other annual payments, reserved or charged thereon, whereby his income is or may be diminished; and

(2) Any inspector may examine every such declaration and statement and take copies of or extracts from the same.
|
| |
(3) If the inspector objects in writing to such a claim stating that he has reason to believe that the income of the claimant, or any other particulars in the declaration or statement of the claimant, are not truly or fully set forth in any specified particular, the claim shall be heard and determined by way of appeal by the Special Commissioners, in like manner as other appeals under this Act and with the like liability to penalties, and if the claim is allowed the Special Commissioners shall grant and issue all necessary certificates accordingly.

|
| |
(4) If satisfactory proof is given that a claimant is unable to attend in person, a claim on his behalf may be made by any guardian, trustee, attorney, agent or factor acting for him.
|
| |
(5) Where a person is assessable on behalf of any other person, he may make a claim as aforesaid on behalf of that other person.
|

3.—(1) If it is proved to the satisfaction of the inspector that any person whose claim has been allowed, has paid any tax, by deduction or otherwise, the inspector may, in the form prescribed, certify the facts proved before him to the Special Commissioners.
|
| |
(2) The certificate of the inspector shall state the particulars of the different sources of income in respect of which tax has been paid, the relief to which the claimant is entitled, the amount repayable in respect thereof, and the name and place of abode of the claimant.
