I just read that "membership to professional bodies can be deducted from tax.
Such membership must be relevant to their duties."

My question is.. under which section can the fees be deducted?

Check our policy. If you konk off before maturity what happens? If beneficiary receives assured amount then by definition its a form of life policy. If beneficiary receives nothing then obviously its not.

From wiki

A life annuity is a financial contract in the form of an insurance product according to which a seller (issuer) — typically a financial institution such as a life insurance company — makes a series of future payments to a buyer (annuitant) in exchange for the immediate payment of a lump sum (single-payment annuity) or a series of regular payments (regular-payment annuity), prior to the onset of the annuity.
The payment stream from the issuer to the annuitant has an unknown duration based principally upon the date of death of the annuitant. At this point the contract will terminate and the remainder of the fund accumulated is forfeited unless there are other annuitants or beneficiaries in the contract. Thus a life annuity is a form of longevity insurance, where the uncertainty of an individual's lifespan is transferred from the individual to the insurer, which reduces its own uncertainty by pooling many clients. Annuities can be purchased to provide an income during retirement, or originate from a structured settlement of a personal injury lawsuit.

Good information. So, it mean that;

(1) Normal life insurance-The insured(buyer)/beneficiary get one lump sum upon dealth/maturity.

(2) Annuity Scheme Insurance -The insured get a series of fixed payment monthly like goverment pension fund until the insured dealth.

Thus, the additional RM 1000 insurance relief is only applicable to (2) only.

Nope because it's not medicine prescribed by medical practitioner.

They're not tax expert. Always refer back to LHDN website or other reliable sources.

QUOTE
According to the IRB's website, the list of allowable deductions for medical expenses incurred for parents includes expenses at nursing homes and for dental treatment. Are medical expenses for parents for treatment at hospitals or clinics allowed for deductions?

Yes, they are allowable. Individuals can claim medical expenses for parents up to a maximum of RM5,000 per year. Receipt from the medical practitioner (only those approved by Malaysia Medical Council) is required as evidence for certifying that the medical treatment has been provided to the parents.

QUOTE
> I purchased supplements which helps in controlling my sinus. However, this is not a prescription from a doctor. Am I able to claim for it?

See above. The purchase of supplements would not fall within this definition and therefore it is not claimable as a tax deduction.

> My daughter has been on anti-allergy medication for more than a year. Are her medical costs claimable?

See above. Since the definition exemplifies diseases which are serious and chronic in nature, this is unlikely to fall within this definition.

> I want to claim for my parents’ medical expenses but receipts are under their name. What should I do?

Tax relief of up to a maximum of RM5,000 is available in respect of medical expenses expended by an individual for his parents provided that the claim is evidenced by a medical practitioner’s receipt to certify that the treatment was provided for your parents.

Where the receipts are issued in your parents’ names, you may substantiate your relationship with your parents by showing proof such as your birth certificate, in the event of an audit by the Inland Revenue Board.

There are certain conditions, namely being ur S&P must be signed within the stipulated date. U might wanna check tht up first. If yes, then u may be able to claim for relief not exceeding RM10k on the interest paid.

There's no place in the IRB form to fill this. U need to deduct from ur penggajian and fill it there. Make a personal note, back it up with ur EA FORM, so tht if u r selected for tax audit, u can explain why the amt differs fr the on in ur EA Form.
