noob question: If no scanner then how??   

People are getting their refunds via cheque or direct bank-in already for those early bird users of E-Filling.

Rental income need to declare right? What if the property is shared with 2 person, e.g. the property under myself and wife's name, and financed under both our names..

How to declare? Can split 50-50 or declare under single person name??

I also put in my bank account details. I thought they wil bank-in direct. they still sent me a cheque. Submit on 19 Mar, got my cheque on 06 April. Kinda fast.

I received this last year, end up never get any refund and I need to call them to check the status, then starts all the hassle of need show them receipts and proofs... until now still have not got back my refund for last year...

Btw wanna ask, is Transport Allowance exempted from tax? If so, what's the max allowable? Thanks!

my scenario: apartment rental starts from 15/11/2010.

therefore, would it be right I if I calculate my rental income for the YR2010 as below?

Gross rental income = rental for Nov + Dec 2010
minus the followings:
1. home loan interest from Nov + Dec 2010
2. quit rent for Year 2010
3. assessment for Year 2010 - please advice if I can claim in full or divide the annual total amount by 12 and multiply by 2 (to count in the 2 months rental that I have received for 2010)?

thank you,
Jade

Hi,

I m new in e-filing, now I m using e-filing for my tax. After compute, it seem that I need to pay tax on my income. So, I pay my tax via Public bank using PBB-IRB bank-in-slip together with CP 501. My question is do I need to send a copy of bank-in-slip to IRB to prove the payment via courier/mail since I had submited my Borong BE via internet.

10% penalty on tax balance. However, if you submit with the manual form, you have 7 days extention (pls double check with officer).

Remember, a futher 5% penalty will be imposed on any balance remaining unpaid after 60 days (i.e. you better submit tax return and pay tax balance with 10% penalty within 60 days after the due date).

Please ask income tax officer. If you follow the income tax act, yes, you are automatically get 10% penalty. Please confirm it before 60 days, because income tax officer wont let you know before penalty grow large amount.

how do we send the borang BE? with post office normal mailing?but i didnt hav the envelope because i collect the borang be from the branch, or we must attend to pandan indah directly pass the borang be?

can we claim income tax deduction when we donate to charity not in the form of cash? example: I spend rm1000 to buy all the daily stuff and donate to a few charity, how do i claim income tax?

It's subjective, depending on the individual and the organisation, the people or network you know, whether they willing to help or not, to provide you the receipt. Or you may want to ask first before donating, tell them frankly you want the receipt for tax purpose.

Also, you must ask/check if the organisation is under the approved list or not. Otherwise, they give you Popular-receipt, you can't use it for tax claim purpose also. 

MCH! Called to Income Tax enquire why still no refund after 2 months. They asked me bring receipts, proof of purchases to nearest office minum kopi.

They sent me letter indicating "semakan" (audit) in mid Apr.  I declared housing loan interest 10k tax relief because bought house in Aug-2009 and 1st instalment on 3-Jan-2010. Monthly interest is ~1.1k. That save me about 2.4k because I am in 24% bracket.

My point is inform us earlier rather than chasing them.

i got the same letter. later on, after a month, they send me another letter saying that i am being audited, asked me to show proof of purchase of home and loan statement - for the tax relief on housing loan interest - i courier to them.....

now still waiting for them...

i have no fear, because i did NOT cheat!
