Just curious, is it stated anywhere in LHDN ?

Can quote which section of the entire LHDN document or link ? As to which section it should be deducted. Else if the item does not exist or applicable for current year assessment. Thanks

Thanks for the accurate info.

There are two things in life that you can't escape: death and taxes

If you have an equivalent EPF contribution, it is easy to reverse calculate the salary amount (which you don't)

If you have any part of the income with digital trace, such as bank into account, or cheque clearing into account, or TT, etc. Unless your income is paid in hard cold cash, and you do not bank in / ewallet any of those amount.
Even if you exchange foreign currency exceeding RM3k, those currency exchange will require your ID/Passport.

If you use the cold hard cash to purchase something significant like property/land, or car, etc. where you need stamping and declaration, LHDN can easily trace and ask you proof your income.

TL;DR My advise: whether it is worth to cheat or not in the long run years/decades down the road, may not necessary limited to 7 years statute.

Late submission fine, if any. Nothing to worry since already happen (late) and worse case is just fine some money. But at least moving forward, your file is clear and up to date, and you don't have to worry about sleep at night, future loan application, tax audit, etc.

There is option for Statement Year : 2000 , but ...

M0144 - No Record Found. For assistance, please call our Customer Service at 603 2771 0228.

Yesterday a few statements released.
Today get another 1-2 statements.
Still a few statements not yet available to download
But anyway, I already know the figures for Life and Medical.

I got the SMS this morning also.

Normally bundle is include free X amount of calls, SMS, etc. So if you do not exceed and need to pay extra on top of the bundle amount, then it cannot be separated. If you want to be on the safe side, then claim the fixed bundle amount only and not other subscription / additional usage charges.

Just to share
Submit: 03/03/2021
Tarikh Disifarkan: 09/03/2021

Expecting refund soon ...

See the box in red. It should be like this if there is submission of BE-form e-Filing.
Just curious if you really submitted and get the BE-slip and BE-submit ?

I don't know the exact technical meaning, but my layman assumption from years of submission, is LHDN has processed my submission on 9th March, agreed to accept my submission as final and hence to settle the +/- amount, in this case a refund to me. So the next step is I am expecting refund into my bank account in coming days/week.

Of course, bearing in mind, LHDN has the right to audit at any time within 7 years.


Looks alright and correct to me. Indeed you have completed your "2021 submission for YA2020" (year assessment 2020). If this is your first year, perhaps it may take longer for LHDN to review (just my layman assumption). Or if you claim some specific rebates which are trigger point for LHDN, such as house loan interest previously. Recently they may focus on parents deduction by cross-query MyKad numbers.

* My submission time is later than you, even though same day 3-Mar.

Don't look at 2021 numbers for now. That is for "2022 submission for YA2021" which you only need to do in coming 12 months time. If there are numbers, it means your company has actually paid the PCB submission to LHDN.

I would like to help but I'm slightly confused and not understand, if you can provide more clarity on your question. What I see could either be:
a) your company/you did not contribute PCB ?
b) your YA2020 need to pay for tax and LHDN has taken the 2021 PCB amount ???
c) something else...

Email them directly, you'll get a reply within one to few days.

Call them up directly as suggested, but during current FMCO not sure if will re-direct the call.

Get all your documents, receipts, claims, deductions ready. Also for the past year(s). Based on history, this long delay seems like trigger audit.

Good luck and do update us here

Next year not working, but this year worked, right ? 2022 is submitting Year Assessment for 2021.

For VSS/MSS, your HR should do some document submission to LHDN to inform on this. Also they will teach you how to calculate 10k/year deduction for each year of employment. Search VSS/MSS keywords in LYN via google. There are more details which I saw before.

If you resign and not VSS/MSS officially, it is consider as normal resignation.

Assume you 3k/mth work 5 months until May = 15k

Assume VSS you get 10 mths because you work 10 years = 30k
Allowable deduction = 10k/year = 100k

For 2022 YA2021, total up everything
= 15k + ABS(30k - 100k)
= 15k + 0 (I remember can only deduct max from VSS and not from other income)

and declare 15k income, and make sure do submission. Taxable should be zero.

Subsequent years, if you retire, two options:
- yearly still must submit with zero income, keep your tax number open, if you have intention to work part-time or do own biz or something.
- else goto LHDN ask to close your taxation file forever.

My understanding is like this:
Assume your gross salary 100k
Pro member 2k paid by employer

You need to add back the benefits-in-kind paid by employer into your gross. Hence gross = 102k
Can you deduct it ? No, cause is paid by your employer, and not pay by you.

Is like example if your employer pay for your housing allowance 3k/month, you need to add back 3k x 12 months into your gross as taxable due to benefit-in-kind.
Similiar as if you employer pay additional RM300/month for your h/p or parking/travel allowance, this amount x12 will include into your gross as well.

On the other side of LHDN, I recall the deduction is based on a list of approved bodies by LHDN, need to find or confirm the list. If you pro-body is not in the list, you can't claim deduction even if it is paid by you.

Again from my layman forummer understanding.

Yes and no. It is provided the membership is allowed under the list from LHDN. I don't have the list and LHDN is very vague on this also. Suggest to try ask for the list directly by contacting LHDN and share here.

Correct. Remember it always as benefit-in-kind.

If you pay yourself, it is paid from your nett taxed salary already. Hence it won't be taxed again.
If employer, refer the one directly above that you already stated.

Again LHDN is vague here. The only clear analogy I can give is e.g. IR/BEM engineer member is required, cause the IR need to sign documents.

Part 1 Q: Correct.
Part 2 Q: If not stated in your EA Form or salary slip, then just submit as-is w/o add the BIK

Follow the invoice/receipt name.
