A draft assessment order is required before a prejudicial variation is made to an eligible non-resident individual, preserving the statutory opportunity to seek Dispute Resolution Panel review; the article reports that bypassing this requirement rendered the final assessment jurisdictionally invalid. It further states that best judgment assessment requires actual statutory non-compliance, which was absent where a verified return and supporting responses were furnished.

The reported assessment, demand and penalty notice were quashed without remand.
