FBR Launches New System to Detect Errors in Tax Returns

The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has launched a new automated system called Computerized Risk Management (CRM) to detect errors in tax returns for the 2026 tax year. The system will electronically review income tax returns and notify taxpayers about possible errors or discrepancies before taking legal action. Taxpayers will be given at least seven days to respond to notices highlighting factual or legal errors, during which they can explain the discrepancies or correct their returns.

If no response is received within the given time, the system will send a reminder with another seven-day period. The FBR will implement the automated scrutiny process through a Change Request Form (CRF), and all identified issues, notices sent to taxpayers and their responses will be shared with the relevant Inland Revenue officer and recorded on a dedicated dashboard.
