Really....lucky the account number I provide just one of my multiple account number...cunning government.

Luckily I requested for cheque.

I printed a copy of the SSPN/PTPTN statement for tax relief and found that one also get the relief for the dividend earned during the year.
For me in year 2013, dividend earned was rm536 and I put in rm5500.
So Tambahan simpanan bersih bagi 2013 is 5500+536=6036.
And amaun layak pelepasan cukai bagi YA2013 is rm6000(max).
All the while I thought only the amount put in is considered.

if your maximum tax bracket is, let say 23%, since the divident tax is paid at 25%, that means you can get 2% refund.. (this is simplified calculation for easier understanding).

is interest not dividend.

deduction is allowed for money top up not on cumulative basis

eg. balance c/f rm5000, add rm2000, bal c/f rm7000====deduction entitlement rm2000 not rm6000

Statement says it is dividend and paid 1st day of the year.
And I was emphasizing the part where even the dividend earned is included in the tax relief.

no

you can claim rm5500 only cos 536 consider interest which is not taxable. since they stated in the statement so you may follow and dont loss this statement

wanna ask if last year tak kena pcb, even amount in EA is not over d limit for kena tax, but i got acc in ldhn, shud i do e filling in this case?
& deadline for e filling is 30 APR or 15MEI?

thanks~

I would put RM6000.... cos the SSPN Statement states AMAUN LAYAK PELEPASAN CUKAI BAGI TAHUN TAKSIRAN 2013

And Please print "PENYATA RINGKASAN AKAUN SSPN UNTUK PELEPASAN CUKAI" which does not mention which amount is Dividen for the year

Conspiracy theory......
You think the Govt can't check how many bank acounts under your name and depends on this little field in the e-Filling. All Banks reports to Bank Negara Malaysia

Hi I just realized I previously paid my income tax for 2012 to the wrong channel, at Bayaran Cukai Pendapatan, instead of Bayaran Ansuran Cukai Individu.

So now currently, my payment does not seem to reflect at my e-Lejar. However I still do have my proof of payment/receipt.

Will this be a big problem? Is it possible to get LHDN to "channel" my past payment to "Bayaran Ansuran Cukai Individu" instead?

this year no postpone for E-Filling?

like last 2 years also delay till 15th of May

observe your movement

you have to wirte a letter to clarifiy the payment that you wrongly channel to. in order toavoid penalty imposed by irb

you must report. efiling deadline 15/05/2014. don't wait

Do you think it was a mistake, and dividend should not entitle for tax relief?

Maybe they purposely made a mistake to trap greedy tax payer.

I definitely "got trap" then
