When the Department initiates correspondence, an email notification is sent to the contacts that were added to the submission/application. Correspondence requiring a response will be indicated by a flag icon.
Agents can only view correspondence for a submission/application at the lodgement level, not via the Correspondence tile.
Downloading correspondence attachments
