Notice that a representative has stopped acting for a person (Form F54)

If you tell us that a lawyer or paid agent is acting for you or another party in a case, you must also tell us when they stop. This is so that we no longer send them information about the case. Use Form F54 to give us notice that someone is no longer a representative.
