PSA: Be wary of tax scammers, says LHDN

ETALING JAYA: The Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) has warned the public to be wary of a scam, using the name of their CEO.

The syndicates are using social media platforms on alleged "tax compliance issues" that are faced by the victim, and thus, offering services to overcome these problems for a fee.

LHDN said that there were those using their CEO's name to threaten taxpayers to settle their "outstanding balance" owed to LHDN through their private accounts.

LHDN said that all tax information of taxpayers is confidential, which is guaranteed by section 138 of the Income Tax Act.

"Hence, the CEO and every LHDN officer are not allowed to discuss tax information of every taxpayer with others," it said in a statement on Tuesday (April 16).

LHDN also said that they did not use middlemen, except certified tax agents and that payments are to be made directly to LHDN's account.

"We advise people to be wary and not to fall for this cheating scam," they said.

I didn't make the rules.
Do claim as you wish. And remember, you have the rights to challenge your tax officer in the event of audit.

Yes. Capped at RM 250

The only time I claimed > RM 250 or RM 250 max is when I changed company.

Q1. Go to the nearest LHDN office/kiosk to get the PIN for e-filing access.

Q2. Your company should have created a tax file account for you.
Filing or not is up to you.

Q3. Annual income.

Either you file it by closing date. E-filing ends by 15/05/2019.
Or you don't file till next year.

Q1. RM 34000 is the annual income. RM 5001 is taxable/chargeable income upon relieves/rebates deduction.

Q2. If you're paying PCB, IMHO, personally, I think won't be any concern since there's a new feature called PCB/MTD is final tax payable to government provided you don't have other sources of income.

You can file next year.
Back dated income from yester-years can be filed.

Included.
Deduction is at another section.
