The IRB has published on its website the 2023 income tax return filing programme (2023 filing programme) titled “Return Form (RF) Filing Programme For The Year 2023”, dated 30 December 2022. Where a grace period is given, submissions shall be deemed to have been received by the stipulated due date if received within the grace period. The grace period also applies to the settlement of the balance of tax payable under Section 103(1) of the ITA. Where the income tax return form (ITRF) or balance of tax payable is not furnished within the grace period, the original due date will be used for the purpose of calculating penalties (note that all references to the “due date” in the table below refer to the original due date).
Some of the key updates to the 2023 filing programme are as follows:
The C.P.8D [i.e., Statement of Remuneration from Employment for the Year ending 31 December 2022 and Particulars of Tax Deduction under the Income Tax Rules (Deduction from Remuneration) 1994] can no longer be submitted by way of compact disc or external hard disk.
Employers are encouraged to furnish the 2022 employees’ remuneration information via e-Data Praisi / e-CP8D. Further guidance is provided in Item 2 of the Guide Notes to the 2023 filing programme.
