Income tax was deducted from the half-month bonus for civil servants on Aug 15 to ease their burden when calculating and settling it later, explained Inland Revenue Board (IRB) public
relations officer Noorhelmi Azrul Mohd Nor.
“The bonus is like any supplemental payment or incentive which is subject to tax,” she told Bernama in Kuala Lumpur today.
She said the amount deducted was based on IRB’s calculation formula, which taxpayers can use online by accessing IRB’s website www.hasil.gov.my.
