for pc rebate, can wife claim if the pc receipt is in husband name?
same with sports equiptment? if receipt under husband name, can wife claim?

wife has been called for query by incum tax deprt


somemore the book receipts some lost as we claimed almost rm600. will income tax fine us since cannot produce receipts?

Only claim for receipt under the tax payer's name only.
Of course will fine you lah... else everyone would be claiming RM1000 each year w/o any receipts, right ?
You can show photocopy if you had them.

aiyoh only under tax payers name? habislah all under my name

Guys.. 1 stupid question, but i still want to know.
If let say, after minus out everything, I only need to pay goverment rm1K maximum for tax then If let say i bought a new laptop at rm3K and add into my claims. The amount that i need to pay to goverment is:

1) zero and government pay me back zero
2) zero and goverment need to pay me back rm2K coz max can claim for computer is rm3K.

Logically I think the answer is suppose no 1. We can only claim back what we paid. For eg: i paid income tax rm18K peryear. Maximum i can claim back is RM18K. Just to be on the safe side, can somebody confirm this?

Another thing is, better we pay monthly(PCB) or pay lum sum? I mean, everymonth we still can put aside the money in ASB or something to get some dividens or interests and will be accumulated and use that to pay the income tax. Will that is a better/wise option?

The RM3k is a relief, not a rebate therefore No.1 is correct..

For employment income PCB must be deducted out.. Fyi, IRB will do PCB Audit and if found out your Company for not paying PCB for you, the Company will get fined..

for your information the 3K laptop is relief not rebate there u cannot use to deduct your tax payable u only allowed to deduct your total income.

second you are require to pay pcb if your salary reach the range set by irb.u employer will definately deduct your salary and remit to irb because if they fail to do so they have to pay the penalty.

For the housing interest relief, I email Hasil customer service to get more info.
According to them, we need to prove that we pay more than half. We need to provide bank official document if any.
If no proof document, it is consider half-half.

Can we use a receipt written to CASH to claim the RM3000 computer tax relief ?

For PC rebate, does Ipad, tablet PC or netbook are enttiled?

Or it must be a full fledge PC or laptop?

Technically and practically speaking, I would expect a netbook to fully qualify as a PC, but the other 2 does raise an interesting question.

so is Ipad entitled ? anyone ?

Tablet PC, Netbook does qualify... iPad is a bit different...

Heya guys, i was just randomly browsing through this thread, I saw the ipad question raised a few times, i even saw the question in Personal Money magazine.. and the IRB person didn't give a clear answer, so I asked my lecturer who owns a tax firm, and he said of course the ipad is eligible for the RM3k relief

eh according wiki, "The iPad is a tablet computer designed and developed by Apple."

so wat you guys think

hi guys, sorry to tumpang this thread but i dunno where to post this. i'm a bit lost regarding monthly tax deduction (MTD/PCB).

i'm in a situation where i have to prepare the MTDs for my company directors which only receive directors fee once a year. last year we didn't pay MTD so LHDN has already fined us and we would want to pay MTD this year but i'm lost at what forms to fill up and submit to them. so far, i understand that i have to submit CP39 but then there's TP1/TP2/TP3, do i need to submit those as well? Also, i now calculate the MTD based on the online calculator that LHDN has provided. i went thru their formula for calculating director fee but don't understand at all. so can i trust the online calculator to calculate the MTD or calculate it manually myself for director fees only.

Template reply from LHDN

iPad certainly does not have handphone feature such as GSM 900/1800/1900 connectivity unless 3G support is considered as handphone feature.

if you bought it for yourself with your own money why not. Anyway you only have to worry if you are audited since you do not have to submit receipt for computer purchase.

Me going for medical check up by year end to get the relief for this year's income tax (its like getting a discount) as next year my income going to be minimal.
