You need to know that even if someone is acting as your agent for tax purposes, you are still responsible for your own tax obligations. This means that having an agent doesn't remove your responsibility to pay taxes or follow tax rules.

If you and your agent want to, you can ask the Commissioner if it's okay for you to handle the tax duties yourself instead of your agent doing them. The Commissioner needs to agree to this change.

These duties include things like keeping records, filing tax returns, and paying taxes on time. Remember, whether you or your agent does these tasks, you're still ultimately responsible for making sure they get done correctly.
