I just got married, if my wife's salary is below 2.5k and is not taxable, so when i file mine, should i put BERASINGAN(SEPARATE) or DIRI SENDIRI;PASANGAN TIADA PUNCA PENDAPATAN ?

Because when i highlight the help logo beside the box, it came out the explanation for DIRI SENDIRI as jika status individu adalah bujang/janda/duda/simati; atau suami/isteri tiada punca pendapatan atau pendapatan dikecualikan cukai

Already married last year la, legally 

So how? Which option should i choose? If Diri Sendiri, I'm entitled for another 3k relief

Our customary wedding ceremony was held in December 2007, but our marriage was registered in January 2008. Can I claim a deduction in respect of my wife in 2007?

For tax purposes, a woman who is regarded by virtue of any law or custom (whether or not she has gone through any religious or other ceremony) as the “wife” of a man or as one of his wives.

You can claim for a spouse relief of RM3,000 in your 2008 tax return but not 2007 since you only legally married in 2008. Your wife must also elect for a combined assessment with you if wife relief is to be available.

My spouse and I are working. Should we elect for joint assessment?

A joint assessment will be more advantageous if your spouse has no income, as you will be gaining an extra deduction of RM3,000 from the spouse relief. In a separate assessment, this RM3,000 spouse relief will not be available.

Separate assessment is usually advantageous as you and your spouse can then each claim RM8,000 personal relief (i.e. total RM16,000) against the income of each person, instead of one spouse claiming personal relief of RM8,000 plus spouse relief of RM3,000.

does anyone know where I can get soft copy of EA form? I need to submit this year.

Finally completed my e-filing today.  Big headache as my streamyx line keep dropping.
Now i realize my employer has a different E number.. ( big sigh)
Past few years same number suddenly changed employer number and i did not check, just assumed the default is correct.

Can I redo the e-filing or do I have to go to the income tax office and join the last minute crowd.
(bigger sigh)

BTW same employer last 5 years and I don't know how or why he has a different E number.

on e-filing is there a place to put tax deduction for professional bodies?

Has anyone called the LHDN officer about claiming an Apple Ipad2 under the RM3K tax relief scheme? The concept is like buying a new computer.

In fact, I have called the officer on the Ipad1 before for the income tax filing this year. According to them, buying an Ipad is equivalent to buying an Iphone, therefore we are not able to claim for the tax relief.

This is just to double confirm if anyone gets the same reply as me.
