Home-Country Filing Coordination for Portugal Expats

This add-on keeps both sides aligned before one country's return is finalised on assumptions the other side never reviewed.
Structured handoff package for the other adviser.
Assumption alignment notes across jurisdictions.
Cross-check before returns are finalised.
