Recently I went to Tax Office to appeal to LHDN to either waive or reduce the penalty impose due to the late submission of the tax form in year 2013.

To my surprise, instead of entertained what I requested, the Tax Dept actually digged out my tax records ways back to 1995 etc and charging me additional penalties related to the 1995 to 1997 submissions.....

What should I do...thinking to ignore their additional penalties as I think it is very unreasonable for them..in the letter they said will take legal action if I failed to settle the penalty.

Any external parties such as Tax lawyer or accountant who can help me?

Please comment, sifu here....

Individual tax. I worked for people.

Actually, I didn't expect them to waive my penalty 100% for late submission, but hopefully they can reduce it since it was only few days delay....end up paying more tax....

I will ignore the LHDN notices until they take further action at this moment....don't care what the hack is their tindakan mahkamah...also no time to visit their office + it is dreadful experience to meet up their #$%&*~~ tax consultant.

Anyone has experiences ingoring the LHDN penalties? What are they going to do with us? Really bring us to the court?

How much the small audit/ tax firm will charge to handle the minor individual tax dispute case like mine?

The firm settle the case for us or just give us the advise?

I don't think LHDN will bring me to court as the amount is not that much (~ 2K).

I just read thru some ppls comments at the beginning of this thread...about calling LHDN to get info etc.

Are u guys sure that LHDN officer will answer the phone?

I called them up twice, one time hanging out and the other time my called was transfer to another extension which nobody pick up.
