Additional Notes:
- IRS requires e-signed records to be tamper-proof once they have been signed and reviewed. To ensure a document is legally binding, TaxCaddy will secure the document in Read-Only mode. This is a cautionary measure to ensure that digitally signed/reviewed documents cannot be tampered with or additional pages are not attached to the signed/reviewed document at a later time.
These signed/reviewed documents can still be viewed in Read-Only mode.
