GST refunds and adjustments: credit notes, refund vouchers or prescribed refund forms govern reversal of tax and excess payment claims. Where a tax invoice was issued and GST paid on an advance or on goods later returned, the supplier must issue a credit note and declare it in the return to adjust tax liability; a separate refund claim is unnecessary unless no output liability exists, in which case a claim for excess tax payment may be filed through the prescribed refund procedure. If advances were recorded by receipt voucher without issuance of invoice, the supplier must issue a refund voucher and may apply for refund as excess payment under the prescribed refund form.
