Hi,
In my case PAN Migration was the issue. I asked the ITO of my ward who was
PIO to share
1) Status on my IT refund.
2) Dates communications initiated with other offices
3) Approximately how much time it will require to get the refund.
I supplied acknowledgement number for reference. When we file return we get
ack number and date. If we analyse ack number it is typical e.g. if it starts
with 74 then your ward is 7(4). This may not true with all IT offices but holds
true by and large.
First reply to me came that it is pending with other office (Patna) due to
PAN migration and the issuing office will be doing needful after receiving
reply from Patna office. So i approached both the office and issue was resolved
amicably with great co-operation from ITO's and Commissioner of IT Patna. (Shri
O.P. Agrawal - I am grateful to him)
Please refer earlier thread in this group about this story. This success
story was published in Maharashtra Herald Pune and Management Times Chennai.
Based on this story, i got two queries having simiar problems of PAN Migration.
I have given them RTI templates.
LESLIE ALMEIDA: My experience other than RTI says, indemnity bonds will be
required if your case(s) are old. You may get in touch with me on email [EMAIL
PROTECTED] or mobile 09822698070 and i will try to help you. I am based at Pune
/ Nagpur.

Dear Leslie,
Just keep it simple.
Ask for information (remember that information = documents, records
already existing). Documents like- copy of his ITRs for last 4 years.
Copy showing posting of his ITRs in the computer (electronic) records
of IT Dept (this one always get them). Copy of Assessment order for
these 4 returns. Copy of Notice (if any) issued to Assessee (RTI
Applicant).
Don't ask questions. Like "Why is my Refund not given? Who are the
guilty officers?" are a No-No.
There is a time limit to collect refund under IT Act. IT Refund has
all kinds of conditions attached. For instance, assessee must have
CLAIMED refund in his ITR. Assessee must have filed his ITR for refund
WITHIN time (1 day late and you get knocked out). etc. etc.
Also follow this link for encouragement.

(Although I formally record my dismay and shock that my fellow
religionists are promoting and propagating such IRRESPONSIBLE use of
RTI for PRIVATE purpose and not in the larger public interest.) But we
can't all be saints.
