I've presented my case and you do not agree to it so I guess there no point debating further. The assessment that you received (which is actually our very own tax return) is 7 months after the year of assessment. So, is this fair to the IRB?

It's not that difficult really. All you have to do is write in to IRB and meet up with the officer. We're now on self assessment so revising our own assessment is probably not gonna happen regularly. How hard is it to offset previous overpayment of tax to our current future tax installment >.< The important thing is to get IRB to acknowledge and agree to the plan.

it is not easy to understand income tax rules and regulations, some of us here spent years in doing and learning it.  for certain tax treatments we can only learn through case study, the guidelines given might be to brief. 

most of the time peoples only learn those parts applicable to them such as tax reliefs, you can use google search for more info or read IRB Public Rulings for easier understanding

Obviously, you work for irb.

if you are a taxpayer, you should think on the taxpayer's behalf but you are damn funny

It's 1 March. I wonder why e-filing still not available yet?

Hi guys,

May I know what is the rough tax deduction for income RM55,000 per annum? Before tax relief.

I have received EA form from HR. But the deduction seems high. So I follow the table to deduct manually which is about RM3,600 (refer to my pay slips). But in EA form RM5,700+. wahlaueh?

Anything did I missed?

I am a Bachelor.

55k p.a. including bonuses?

Refer to table: http://www.hasil.gov.my/goindex.php?kump=5...it=5000&sequ=11

55k gross after EPF will be 48.95k

First 35k, 1525; balance of 13.95k will be taxed at 12% = 1674

Total tax = 3199

Not sure how they count. I think the amount run a bit. Even if included the bonus in the tax shouldn't exceed RM4K or max at RM4K.

Can I just ignore the deductions in EA form?

Just key in the gross income and other, then PCB paid then remaining balance. Can I just tell them it's an error by the company?

Throw in extra RM2.5K for...? 

But I always thought the figure they want is gross not nett?

How do i know if my insurance falls under the rebate bracket. I have a medical+investment insurance from Great Eastern, called Smart Protect Essential Insurance. Any idea?

The medical insurance in term of % of your annual premium paid is put under Medical + Education insurance section up to RM 3k.

The life insurance in term of % of the annual premium paid is put under EPF + life insurance section up to RM 6k.

Refer to the annual statement from Great Eastern.

SSPN statement for Income Tax filing still not out yet....
