I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request a copy of my Income Tax Return (ITR) for the financial year 2022-2023.

My name is Polly Ediza, and my tax identification number is 321-241-543. I am in need of a copy of my ITR for a loan application. My source of income is purely from employment.

I would be grateful if you could provide me with a copy of my ITR at the earliest convenience. 

Thank you for your assistance in this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Regards,
Polly
