Inland Revenue is closing its system from 3pm Thursday 21 October until Thursday 28 October for its final ‘Business Transformation’ – IR’s upgrade of its system, processes and organisations.
Due to this upgrade, the filing date has been extended to Thursday 4 November.
Customers can file their returns before the IR systems shut down on the 21 October, or once available from 28 October. However, you should file them by 4 November. This information also helps IR process your applications for COVID-19 support quicker.
If you can’t pay your tax on time or in full due to COVID-19, IR may be able to help you by cancelling penalties and interest.
If you have any pātai, contact IR’s Ngā Kaitakawaenga Māori Team here.
