Question is, can I only start filing for 2020 and ignore previous years? It is not a case of cheating or anything. If anything LHDN would owe me money for refund due to relief claimed.

Pls advise guys.

Of course you can start filing for 2020 and ignore previous years. Its your choice. But the correct question is would LHDN ignore your previous years? The answer is no.

Fret not, LHDN won't trouble you much as they probably think you are not worth the hassle as well. They probably just calculate whatever your previous years amount would be, slapped you with whatever penalty for not paying on time and demand for payment within a stipulated timeframe. As simple as that.

If I file for 2019 now, will they provide me a refund for the relief?

It depends on the amount of the relief and the penalty imposed on you. LHDN will offset it. If the relief amount is higher than the penalty, yes, they will provide the refund.

I think there's a 10% penalty for late submission and additional 5% if still not paid after 2 months.

Call LHDN or check their website.
