IR Services on-line
IR Services on-line is a suite of Internet applications available to taxpayers and tax practitioners.
The overall objective of the Inland Revenue is to enable taxpayers and their authorised tax practitioners to file Income Tax Returns, effect payments of tax and social security contributions and submit other Inland Revenue forms on-line over the Internet.
Services on IR services on-line are divided into three main service clusters:
- Corporate Taxpayers
- Employers and FSS
- Individual Taxpayers
Information on how to register for IR services on line can be found here.
Corporate Taxpayers
The Company Income Tax processing is an initiative to create a fully electronic process from the taxpayer's desk through the Inland Revenue's Processing system. Tax practitioners will be able, on behalf of their corporate clients to:
- file Income Tax returns and Financial Statements
- submit Provisional Tax Reduction forms
- access their clients' accounts to confirm payments and tax statements
- access their clients' tax return submission status
More information on Company services can be found here.
Employers & FSS Services
Employers who employ thirty (30) or more employees are obliged to submit FSS end of year records electronically. The service has also been extended to employers who employ ten (10) or more employees. These services include:
- Payments for years 2004 onwards are always available for viewing not just after the submission of the FS7 and FS3 data
- Employers may test the FSS files for 2004 against all validations through their authenticated access
- A spreadsheet is provided to serve as an interface between the payroll and the Inland Revenue website.
More information on Employers & FSS services can be found here.
Individual Taxpayers
Individual taxpayers can effect payments online for Self Assesment, Settlement Tax, Provisional Tax and Social Security Contributions (Class Two) due. The Inland Revenue encourages the use of this service so that taxpayers need not call and queue at the Department Cash Office or send a cheque with the risk of incurring Additional Taxes if the payment does not arrive in time.
Individual taxpayers can submit their personal Income Tax Return on-line. Taxpayers need the eID to access this service.
Taxpayers can also access information on their account as from year of assessment 2003. Taxpayers can view payments, tax statements and tax return statuses for a specific year of assessment.
More information on online payments can be found here.
