  2. 02The check applies only when its first part holds in your return. When it does, the second part must hold too: fix the second part, or correct the first.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark IR.08.01 as reported.
  4. 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
