Hi I am new here. May I know where shall I put the tax relief for petrol card and car allowances in the online BE form?

Yes. He is an employee. He is has an EA form.

I was told by the him, the previous accountant who did the submissions for him, advised him that he is entitled to deduct the expenses as such, hair cut, shirts etc as these are 'tools' which are necessary for him to carry out his duty effectively. As the previous accountant charged him to accessively, he came to me. FYI, I am doing it FOC for him seeing that he is my closed fren and I am just trying my best to assist him. I am not an accountant btw.

So how much is the limit set for this category?

Thanks.

do you have an EA Form? are those figures inside there correct?

i mean did your boss put those exempted income into a separate line? the EA Form format has been changed for Year 2008

Your friend is not entitled to those deduction as mentioned by your previous accountant. The scope of deduction for employment income is extremely limited.

Not really sure what you mean but so I just put my annual income and comm into the BE form only? coz there is one column with allowances in it.

all tax-exempted allowances NO NEED to put in e-BE form ... why everyone thinks these figure need to be shown ? It's only in Section G of the EA form for references only.

Your total salary should be deducted accordingly from the allowances

How to I make payment via M2U ?

which payment code should I choose ? And what is the installment number ?

After declare my income, still need pay around 60++

is Sarjana = Masters or is it Bachelor Degree only?
I also read some where the kursus needs to be approved by Kementerian Kewangan, is there a website that list the approved kursus?

There is a link for e-payment after you submit, and there's a tutorial where you can download too.
Just follow what it says and there you go...

Any courses also can. Just keep the receipt from ur uni...after all, it is education...

ohya, sorry for the mistake. this clause is introduced since 2008 only

No worries...we are here to help each other mah...

I just heard some Tax advice from 988 radio station.

Beside medical bill, we can charged "healthcare product bought for parents" under RM5000 for parent medical relief.
This include vitamin bought from pharmacy and chinese and western medical (ginseng and etc) products.

1. So, can I charge things like Anlene Gold and Brands Chicken Essence?

2. Can those chargeable item share the same receipt with non-chargeable item?
For example I got one receipt worth RM300. Out of 300, only 100 is spend on Anlene Gold and 50 is spend on Brands.
The others 150 is spend on things like dynamo.


Thanks for advice!

The medical expenses is only allowed as relief if it is prescribed by an approved practitioner, well, like a doctor. If there's a prescription on the medication needed by ur parents, then you go buy them at the pharmacy, such medical expenses is allowed.

I doubt ginseng or chicken essence is considered as medical expenses.

Yup, I also doubt those things can be claimed but it is the adviced from tax professional invited by 988 radio to consult public.

Any tax professional here can verify this?


Thanks!

Remember that those medical expenses must be prescribed by an approved practitioner.

there is a summary on NST today with an interview with CEO of LHDNM, it did mention some on this matter, read for more details

I can categorically confirm that chicken soup even though recommended by Dr cannot be claimed as medical expenses fot income tax purposes.

Haiya, only medical expenses incurred by parent as evidenced by receipt from Doctor registered with MMA will be considered. Although extension is given to nursing home/care.

want to ask, is shift allowance considered as 'Penggajian'? cause in EA form it is out of 'Penggajian', thanks.
