An Intermediate Fix may also be an Initial Approach Fix.
A typical example is a T style approach, where both the right base and the
left base ends are IAFs and the top center of the T is an IF, but not an
IAF. See http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0802/05726R5.PDF
There are numerous examples of the top center being both an IF and an IAF.
See http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0802/05683R28.PDF
When an IF is also an IAF, you can select the IF(IAF) in the select approach
dialog.
Actually, it is only (and always) when it has a hold-in-lieu course
reversal.
Next question: If a controller clears you directly to an IF/IAF do you
always disregard the hold-in-lieu course reversal and go straight-in?
