You can check the PCB rates for yourself at hasil.gov.my to see if your company is deducting the correct amount.

I just registered myself for the first time and got a tax reference number. What next? Wait for the goverment to send me a form?

I've just logged into the e-filing thing for the first time and noticed that it's lacking in some things. For example, there is a space to declare rental income but no space to enter expenses related to that rental? Or should I just enter the net rental income after all expenses have been deducted?

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?

I happened to know where to download the EA form because I was looking around for it myself. It is actually "hidden" under the "Other Forms" page rather than "Income Tax Forms". Funny.

In my case, I needed it because I work for a small family-owned company and I'm doing the payrolls for everyone.

A quick question: does Malaysia have capital gains taxes? If I sell a house at a profit, do I need to declare the extra money above original purchase price as income?

Sorry if this has been answered already, but from what I can tell from the hasil.gov.my website, the income tax forms for 2009 hasn't been released yet, correct?
