You have to submit this form to tax authorities in demand.You have to get this form from the tax authorities of the country in which you are resident.

You can't submit it online in India. (Don't know about other jurisdictions). Anyone can submit it on your behalf.

Please let me know if you need any further clarification on this.

Thanks and Regards
