The rule in plain words
Reinsured benefit less than gross
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark IR.30.06 as reported.
- 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
