IRS 2025: how to avoid stalled cases in the final filing phase

June is a sensitive month for processes that depend on Portuguese tax documents. The 2025 IRS return must be filed by 30 June 2026, and many clients are still submitting the return, waiting for validation or trying to understand which proof they were asked for.

Where cases usually stop

The most common mistake is treating every IRS document as if it were the same. The submitted return, the filing proof, the tax assessment notice and the tax assessment certificate have different timings and different uses. When a team simply asks for "the IRS", the client often guesses and sends the wrong file.

What to request clearly

The request should name the exact document, the tax year and the expected format. This avoids screenshots, outdated files and documents that do not answer the bank's request.

• Modelo 3 declaration when the goal is to review declared income
• Filing proof when it is necessary to show that the return was submitted
• Nota de Liquidação when the analysis depends on the tax result
• Certidão de Liquidação when a formal certificate is required
• Tax debt/non-debt certificate when regular tax status matters
