Assessments.
Assessor to make assessments. 60. (1) Every person who is in the opinion of an Assessor chargeable with tax under this Ordinance shall be assessed by him as soon as may be after the expiration of the time limited by the notice requiring him to furnish a return under section 52(1):
Provided that the Assessor may assess any person at any time if he is of opinion that such person is about to leave the Colony; or that for any other reason it is expedient to do so.
(2) Where a person has furnished a return of income liable to assessment the Assessor may either—
- (a) accept the return and make an assessment accordingly; or
- (b) if he does not accept the return, estimate the amount of the assessable income of such person and assess him accordingly:
Provided that if the Assessor accepts the return as substantially correct, but considers it necessary to make further inquiries on any matter, he may make immediately a provisional assessment in the amount of the return which until amended shall be a valid assessment for all purposes.
