Income Tax Refunds

[ADONI]

Oh Guys, What do you do when filing for a year you didn't work? Just leave it as unfilled?

[rafman]

Anyone tried to file a return for 2023? I am not seeing the option.

[Dave]

See above..April it should be out.

If you are telling them you received no income from any sources for that income tax year, you will be required to do an affidavit/ probably the other named person as well, that another taxpayer was supporting you during that time. Or somehow prove to the officer that you were financially capable of supporting yourself. I think

No refunds until Jan 2025 - Just in time for elections

There was a year I had no income for some months and a letter was all the they needed explaining why I didn't have 52weeks of pay.

Yup it has an option to enter the weeks worked and you can put 0 and attach the reason

Portal still closed for 2023 filing.

Imbert and dem playing smart with foolishness. They don't want anyone to file early to get back refunds.

They keeping all the refunds until 2025- to fool the people - as usual.

[Dave]

As far as I can remember...the previous year's returns were never available till end April/May of the following year.

Last year or year before, I think it was available from March. But I old so my memory may not be all that.

[Dave]

Nah I do this for a living and like to do returns as they are available...it was during April it was ready. I'll check my files later this evening that I would have saved.

[Dave]

The earliest company return I have being prepared in 2023 for 2022 filings was the 5th May.
I would have been ready before May as is usually my case.

[wing]

I did mine this morning, so you can check the site.

[Dave]

Personal return?
Company ones are still not available.

[Dave]

Crikey..personals are available!
Long live Colm!

Though I filed in March 2023 for 2022, I have not received anything. It's still stuck at "processed" and its under 10k. Just filed for 2023, even knowing this is probably gonna get stalled again since its over ~12k. Frustrating.

I filed last week (3rd) will report when I get cheque in hand.

Usually takes 6-10 weeks for me based on past experiences.

I got TD4s last week but none of the statements from my financial institutions.
I always envy people who can file as early as possible.

Me I can't even file my TD1 as yet.

You can request the statements from your financial institutions early, so you have everything once you get the TD4 in hand.

My biggest one is a work one. We can't go directly to the financial institutions ourselves.
My personal stuff with GHL if I ask them today I getting statements tommorow. I usually wait for the work one before bothering my personal one.

[PariaMan]

Got my assessment letter. Usually, I get the cheque about 2 weeks after

Still waiting

[Les Bain]

BIR claims they sent a refund cheque to my P.O Box last year.
National Mail Centre says nuh uh. BIR says uh huh. Back and forth so for some weeks til BIR say they will reissue one.
Ask if I could collect it at their office. They say nuh uh. We go mail it to you.

That's almost a year now. National Mail Centre say they have not received any BIR cheques in a long ass time.
Why isn't collecting your cheque from the horse's mouth not an option?

[bluefete]

Income tax refunds paying like rain before August 2025.

Even if the Treasury empty, Imbert will find money from somewhere to pay refunds before elections in 2025.

Meanwhile, allyuh fellas will have to hold on to your hats until then.

Don't ever be in the position for the govt to have money for you. If your respective payroll departments need lessons in tax calculation..check me.

Great point. Self-employed people know this the best.

[Dave]

There is ample room in the existing tax laws to allow you to owe the govt and not pay penalties and interest.
Stop being a victim of your employer and accountant.
