Description |
1. Simplified filing process for the employee
|
You do not need to manually include your employment income and deductions (made through your salary) in your tax return. These details will be reflected in the Income Deduction Relief Statement (IDRS), based on information submitted by your employer.
If the details are not shown in the IDRS and your employer is in the AIS, you can still proceed to
- e-File
- click on the box under "Employment" in Section A of the main Tax Form Income Page. Your employment income information will be automatically included in your assessment when we receive the information from your employer.
Or
- file a paper return
- you should enter '0' for your employment income and any donations, CPF contributions and life insurance premium deducted from your salary.
|
2. Other declarations by the employee
|
You will still need to
1. declare other sources of income (e.g. rental) and
2. indicate your claims for tax reliefs (e.g. child relief, parent relief) where applicable.
