HELP MEEEEEE.
Went to POSB again to open my account. I live in JB and they need LHDN letter or tax letter or something. I never register LHDN. How can I get that letter?

QUOTE(TzeThon @ Mar 2 2017, 12:02 PM) yes very sad that OCBC terms changed! i saw the comparison, if large amt of money better go uob i think UOB conditions are lesser. but need another credit card also not a wise choice. furthermore, if we open both OCBC and UOB accounts, and split our savings, we also can't earn much interest in total right? by the way, SGD rate is going up now. hopefully hit 3.5 this year   https://justasingaporeanson.blogspot.sg/201...comparison.html |

However the following year if your employment spills over into exceeding 183 days you can request IRAS to re-assess you as a tax resident and refund you the difference in tax paid. - Visit IRAS website for more information on taxes. - CPF (equivalent of our EPF) is only mandatory for PR's and SC's (Singapore Citizens) at 16% Employee, 20% Employer, capped at first $5k per monthShould be Employer 17% and Employee 20 %, capped at SGD6K per month - Some companies will encash the employer portion for foreigners. - Visit CPF Website for more information on CPF. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |
