Also another question. Bonuses are considered for the year they are paid right? I mean if I get paid a bonus in February 2009, this should really be considered for income tax purposes only for 2009 even though on paper the bonus is supposedly for services rendered in 2008. Is that correct?
Refer to Attahun reply on above quote. It's going to depend on the EA form. Below is my situation:Take an exmaple on my 2009 EA form below:
"Butiran Pembayaran Tunggakan DSB Bagi Tahun Tahun Terdahulu (Sebelum Tahun 2009) "
Bayaran Bagi Tahun Jenis Pendapatan Jumlah Bayaran (RM) Carumah Tunggakan Kepada KWSP
2007 Bonus XXXX xxxx
I Received my bonus at around Jun 2008.
After i read through topics gathering all the advices and experience from the forumens, i found out there is 2 normal practices they fill the tax for above situation:
1. Add the 2007 bonus to TOTAL PENGAJIAN 2008.
2. Declare 2007 Bonus under Section G1 for Pendapatan Tahun Kebelakangan yang belum dilaporkan.
Which one is preferable? If i declare it under Section G1, it won't be taxable in my 2009 tax assessment, but LHDN will approach me to inform me on how much tax i need to pay for year 2007, right?
Appreciate forumens advices on it.
