Don’t worry, taxpayers told


PETALING JAYA: A tax professional says those who have been faithfully paying their dues have no cause to be alarmed despite the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) now being allowed to access taxpayers’ banking information without warning or permission for investigation.

Tax agent Christine Koh said this meant that the time frame for tax audit would be shortened and the process sped up, access information of these accounts from the banks instead of waiting it to be furnished by taxpayers.
