My fax machine doesn’t print a confirmation sheet but the report had a fax stamp with a handwritten date and initials when it was faxed. Will that be accepted as proof of timely filing?
Stamping the report with a “fax stamp” and writing in the date when the report was faxed is not verifiable supporting documentation. This type of documentation doesn’t show who the report was sent to and the actual date and time of the fax. The fax confirmation page is the best documentation for the submission date.
