Official tax filing and digital ID portals

Tax returns and government sign-in happen on a short list of official domains: incometax.gov.in, DigiLocker and UIDAI in India, irs.gov in the US, the CRA My Account in Canada, myGov and the ATO in Australia, Inland Revenue in New Zealand, Singpass and IRAS in Singapore and Revenue in Ireland. Refund and 'tax notice' messages are the most common phishing lures, so sign in by typing the address yourself.

Before you apply

  • Tax agencies do not send you a link to claim a refund by SMS. Type the official address in your browser instead.
  • Never share a one-time password or Aadhaar OTP with a caller, even one who says they are from the government.

Six signs a scheme website is fake

Fake benefit, scholarship and job-scheme sites copy official logos. These signs give them away.

  1. 1The domain is not a government oneA scheme name, a ministry logo or the national flag on a .com, .org, .in, .co or .online address proves nothing. Read the part right before the first single slash.
  2. 2You are asked to pay to register or applyApplying for government benefits, scholarships and registrations on the official portal is normally free. Fees for 'processing', 'registration' or 'guaranteed approval' are a classic scam.
  3. 3You are asked for an OTP, PIN or passwordNo government officer needs your one-time password, UPI or bank PIN. Anyone asking for it is trying to take over an account.
  4. 4The link came by SMS, WhatsApp or a social media adReal agencies rarely send sign-in links. Type the official address yourself or use this list.
  5. 5It promises guaranteed money or a deadline todayPressure and certainty are both warning signs. Official schemes publish eligibility rules and dates on their own portal.
  6. 6It asks you to install an app or APK from a linkOfficial government apps are listed on the official site and in the regular app stores. A side-loaded APK can read your messages and OTPs.

Does AltFTool check whether I am eligible?

No. AltF Impact asks for no personal details and makes no eligibility decision. Each official portal explains its own eligibility rules and is the only authoritative source.

How can I tell whether a portal is genuine?

Check that the domain is an official government one, such as gov.in, .gov, gov.uk, canada.ca, gov.au, govt.nz, gov.sg or gov.ie, or that it matches the address linked from this list. The AltF official website checker reads a pasted link and flags common warning signs.
