Is there such a thing for income tax to suddenly deduct a lot from your salary?
I've called my HQ they say is new income tax rule, so in months to come not going to deduct much..

She say is because i just got increment in my salary that's why income tax deduct one shot..

Yes, for PCB, the deduction % is calculated monthly (not avg salary per month). So, if for this month you receive several months of back-dated increment, or big bonus, the deduction will be a lot compared to normal. It can even be 1-1.5x more from your normal deduction.

Just wait until next year (2012), do the assessment for 2011, and you can claim back overpaid tax.

ThNks for the reply..I still have not get back my rebate for year 2010.. Normally how long does it take for them to process..

Depends. I submited end-Apr and not yet receive also.

There is one time (within these few years), I received rebate in Aug only.

hello,

Im was told by the sport company owner / boss that i can claims sport tax relief on the CamelBak hyration pack that i brought.

Im quite surprised when were told on this. Anyone have tried claim sport relief on the hydration pack???

hi.. i got refund letter on march where they investigate me..ask me wait 3 month...if not contact by them, 4th month i need to contact them..june is 4th month... nobody contacted me..i don dare to contact them as i realize a lot of receipt that i lost already or throw already..

can advice whether i should keep quiet or call them y didnt refund $ to me (haha)?

me too.. no payment yet too... wonder need to call or dont want to call

Be confident on what you have submitted Give IRB a call to find out what's the reason the for the delay, to expedite the refund.

Cheers.

wat if they ask us to bring receipts and we don have?
how to be confident? it is like cari pasal or maut

memang cari pasal if you did not keep the receipt properly.

What advise you want from the forumer?

It depends if they need to check or not. From the previous thread, it seems that some of the forumers are able to get their refund cheques quite fast, within few weeks after doing an e-filling.

As for mine, I did e-filling as well and receive a letter stating that it is going for audit and I should contact them in 3 months time if I don't hear from them. Haven't heard from them so far. But I'm pretty sure it'll take the whole 3 months and another few more months to do all those checking and have to show them prove of receipts and everything before I get the refund back.

wat happen if cant provide receipt?
that all i like to know
and what i can do

You know, you can always call their helpline and ask them about it. They won't fine you just because you asked a question.

I haven't encounter anything like that basically because they have always reminded us to keep our receipts for the past 7 years (I think it's 7) and I've been keeping receipts as long as I can ever remember. If no receipts then it's like cari pasal lor.

Try to get other forms of prove for your purchase. Like if it's insurance, get the insurance company to give you something.
My dad has issues with income tax issues way back like in 1986. They still come and kacau him and he had to show prove to reduce the fine.

LOL If don't have the receipt or lost it, i.e. no proof, why do you put into tax deduction ?

Like that memang cari pasal lah

Hope they not audit you. I was audited once, they ask me meet at interview room (Jln Duta branch). She brought my file with all my actual submissions for the past years, and check about 2-3 years latest submission, receipts, etc. Not really 100% scrutinize but still browse through all. Since I keep all in proper (at least 7 years), there is nothing they can do, and interview done after 20 minutes.

What you can do now is, try borrow receipts from friends, e.g. for book receipts no name printed (Popular/MPH/Kinokuniya/Borders/etc.)
If computer, then try ask vendor to print for you (must be your name).

I submitted my e-filling 5/4/2011 ... I still yet to receive my refund ..

Called IRB and checked the status... Refund approved on 24/5/2011 ... Will receive the cheque within 14 working days ..

Just got my cheque.. This year first time do all these income tax stuff..

I think you should just call them. They will not ask you to come for audit if you call them. Only if you receive the letter for them.
I think.

I submitted mine early March. I received a letter saying that mine was due for further audit.
Called them last 2 weeks and they said that my refund was approved, although of lower amount and I would receive the cheque in 14 working days.

Still waiting for that cheque!

Guess I should call them soon too since it's almost coming to three months anyway.
