When to use this workbook

Use this depreciation error method history workbook to connect asset schedule, prior years treatment and correction assignment before the next review. Keep the three records distinct so a missing item is visible.

Preserve the original filing and payment history before preparing a correction. Tie each proposed change to supporting records and identify federal and state follow-up work.

Review checkpoint: A recent discovery of an error does not prove a refund claim is timely. Keep filing dates, payment dates and prior agency changes available for review.

Turn the record into a review handoff

For depreciation error method history, start the handoff with the connection between asset schedule and prior years treatment. Then identify what correction assignment still needs to establish. The exported sheet should make that relationship clear without replacing the original documents.

List the person collecting evidence separately from the professional deciding treatment. A blank field is a request for follow-up, not a zero, an approval or a concluded answer. Keep the supporting documents in your agreed secure record system; this public page accepts no document uploads.
