I got the stupid question here. I recently get the penalty from LHDM for late submission. They send me the assessment forms and ask me to paid in 4 separate installments otherwise court action will be taken. If I choice to ignore it, then what will happen? They won't take action for small amount right? I didn't paid my car saman also nothing to me.  Maybe LHDM is different. Please share your view.

QUOTE(LostAndFound @ Jan 15 2014, 09:17 PM) Why take the risk? If someone bad mood then you get charged 100% more for tax, worth it? Last time that happened to me (non-declaration because not working a few years while studying) I just went to their office to rayu and all settled without paying anything. Rather than ignore... 1) The amount comes up to around RM800.00. Is the pain in the ass. I didn’t commit any crime, why penalise me so much to this crony’s government? 2) I also read it somewhere in the forum that someone go there to rayu his penalty but end up paying additional taxes because they checked back his/ her previous years records and found out additional discrepancies in his/her previous year tax return. That’s why I think twice first before going to LHDM. 3) Are you sure they can charge 100% penalty to us? I tot they have the guideline to follow. Cannot simply hentam one right?

QUOTE(LostAndFound @ Jan 16 2014, 10:32 AM) No comment on the politics, but submitting late still has penalty. Its considered a form of tax evasion. Its not a crime, that's why no jail time. Are there issues with the earlier years for you? If so then better just to pay up. Doesn't mean you won't be audited later though. They have. Have you read it? I don't have the details, but when I first started paying income tax I read through the laws and regulations I recall basically any false/late declaration will be charged at 100% minimum. Basically you are saying 'don't pay' as if they'll forget about it. This is LHDN not DBKL or whatever. They won't forget, and they can come after you any time unless you can leave the country. Go and settle, or go and rayu. Don't ignore. Thanks for sharing. By chance you worked for LHDM or government's Tax related Department?
