It means that the government revenue tax officers have decided to check you tax returns and they will come out to see you and ask you to provide all the receipts and evidence you used as the basis of you filling out your tax return. If they find everything OK (within reason - they will ignore small 'honest' errors) then things will be fine.However, if they find you have not filled in your return correctly they will investigate your returns for previous tax years and you wil be fined and taken to court.
