Ethics, betrayal and taxes


Every one is encouraged to declare their income by submission of the relevant forms at the IRB’s customer service counters or by e-filing through the Internet at home. - Filepic

I JUST did my tax returns via e-filing this week. I was shocked to find out that I owed the taxman a few thousand ringgit even though I have made deductions of a thousand ringgit a month. So there goes the holiday I had planned.

The good thing about e-filing is I don’t have to send in all the supporting documents and receipts (but must keep them, if the efficient tax people decide to do an audit).
