I did not said simply claim. I just said there is no harm to claim from LHDN if we donated to the approved charity channel.

That's why my donation receipt there is a clause "Dikecualikan Cukai Pendapatan Menarat Sek 44(6)" clause.

What I stated there is clear enough. I was replying to someone suggestion not to claim for tax rebate for donation since we did it on good faith to the god.

Hi!,

I was at the LHDN yesterday & made enquiries with the Tax Officer on 2 items:-

1. Tax Relief for "Purchase of Sports Equipment"
--------------------------------------------------------
I asked the officer whether the Ogawa ezTone can be claim for Tax Relief. He wasn't sure so he called his boss & CONFIRMED that can be claim.

My worry is if I claimed for Tax Relief BUT after a few year they may reject & impose a penalty of 45%.
2. Tax Relief for "Medical expenses for serious illness (incl. full medical examinations up to RM500) for spouse.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My wife (full-time housewife) was admitted to hospital for "acute gastritis".
Expenses incurred incl. medical examinations (imaging, X-ray & laboratory tests) plus treatment/procedure/wad.

Question:
Can I claim for the TOTAL EXPENSES incurred? If NO, then can I claim just for the medical examinations (imaging, X-ray & laboratory tests) COST which is subjected to a max. of RM500. I did not claim the medical examination for myself so the RM500 relief is still unused.
I have made "online" enquiry via LHDN website becos' I need a black & white answer from them before I claim for the Tax Reliefs. Worry that they may change their mind on the intepretations & impose a penalty on me at a later date.

Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks!

Chinese that work as government servant are very LCLY
Don't ask me why, but if you relate it back to how Chinese treat Chinese for the past 5000 years, you should understand it

U guys know about deferred annuity? My 2013 MLTA statement , says that I can get RM3000 as tax relief as deferred annuity. I have paid more than RM4k premium

hi guys,

i've been reading around that if you earn 2.5k and above per month, you are taxable.

my question is, is this 2.5k referring to nett or gross salary? My gross salary is 2.8k per month = RM33,600 annually.

my nett salary (after minus EPF socso) = RM2478 per month = RM29,736 annually.

Assuming no tax relief/rebate.

By just looking at the amount above, am I taxable? I look at my salary slip from my company and under the 'income tax deduction', it is RM0 every month.

First time filing with a child here. I have some questions I hope someone here can assist:

1. My wife (she's working) and I are filing separately
2. Our son was born in 2013.

Question:
1. Under children relief, which do I fill in? 100% or 50%?
2. Who should fill that in? Myself or my wife or both fill in for 50%?

BTW, it's the same child.

This is questions regarding HK-3 (Stock dividends)

1) Do I need to fill this into HK-3 (see below) ? The Income tax column is printed as dash, so no tax ?
Company XYZ Dividend voucher

Single tier, Number of Shares 1000, Dividend rate 10 sen, Gross dividend RM100.00, Income Tax (None), Net Dividend - 100.00

Some dividend vouchers, put it as Income Tax : Tax exempt or Income tax rate at 25% : - (dash)

2) This one even more pening. What should I fill in ?

Company PQR REIT Dividend voucher
Unit holding 2000,  1.65 sen per unit - taxable, 0.35 sen per unit - tax
Taxable income RM33.00, Tax withheld RM3.30, Non taxable income/Deductable expenses RM7.00, Net Payable RM36.70

Total amount : RM 36.70

i went to this link and it was stated "Tiada Rekod Nombor Cukai Pendapatan Bagi No. Kad Pengenalan Baru"

however, i have received an email in february last year when i registered online:

"Saya dengan hormatnya merujuk kepada perkara di atas.

2. Sukacita dimaklumkan nombor rujukan cukai telah didaftar seperti berikut:

  No Rujukan Cukai : SGxxxxxx

  Cawangan        : Petaling Jaya

  Sila gunakan nombor rujukan ini di dalam semua urusan surat-menyurat dengan pejabat ini."
it doesn't make sense does it? i have an income tax reference number but when i semak no. cukai, it says there is no record?

Hello!

I did my tax online and after claims and deductions, according to it, I have over paid my tax by rm2k++. However I only just received a little over rm1k+ in tax refund. What happen to the remainder? Do they give tax refund in installments? (as far as I remember, I've always gotten lump sum)

The only difference for my tax filling year 2013 is that I claimed Interest in Property (I meet its requirement) and declared my wife and son. Wife not working and son under 18 years of age.

Hi guys....not sure anyone ask this before...just file my tax for 2013. Cant find relief for braodband. No more?

Hi guys, i'm newbie to this tax thingy . only e-be form that need to be fill and submit right?

Yes, I can't find the relief for broadband too :-(

Hi all,

What is the minimum gross salary which is taxable?

guys i noticed that you can pay taxes to lhdn by installment using maybank2u, cimbclicks etc, we can decide to choose the number of installments we wish to make ? 6 months, 1 year etc without any penalties ?

thru epf like what? unit trust?

this is for eg. Private Retirement Scheme if you have bought from banks, Hwang, insurance companies etc

Not really, usually that "grace period" are extended to 3 months.
But that does not mean you can try your luck.
I think out of all the government departments that we will be dealing with, IRB is the only department that can slow talk to settle an issue

Best to declare all your income sources.... though Unit Trust usually "re-invest" the dividend.
