Recent changes have been made to the Student Loan scheme, with the IRD’s aim being for student loans to now be a bit easier to manage and repay.
The changes came into effect April 2012 and further changes are to be introduced in April 2013.
To learn more about the specific changes and to see if they might affect you, please visit this link on the IRD website http://www.ird.govt.nz/studentloans/guide/changes/
The big refunds keep rolling out to our clients – we have just confirmed a refund over $38,000 for a lucky customer in Porirua (North of Wellington).
A new car, holiday, deposit on a house… wow.
Our 2nd largest refund so far is $6182.89 – so its looking like a great refund season for everyone!
Remember our average refund is $512 – but its still nice to share this amazing news.
Apply for your tax refund this month with MyTax.co.nz and you will recieve double Fly Buys points on any refund fees + you will get 10 Bonus Fly Buys Points for just signing up!
So far this month we have had a heap of large refunds paid out to lucky kiwi’s all around NZ.
The biggest refund so far went to one of our customers in Waiuku (40 kilometres southwest of Auckland).
That should help pay a few bills or maybe a big trip overseas!
Important Dates:
Mid June – IRD will begin releasing 2012 Refunds
May to June – Most peoples employers would have updated 2012 PAYE details
Each year when the new tax season opens (after 1st April) we have to wait until tax details are updated at the IRD before we can let you know how big your refund is. This can happen anytime between now and the end of May (most get updated during May).
So if you’re wondering why we haven’t let you know your result yet it is because of this delay that affects everyone in New Zealand.
The great new is that MyTax.co.nz checks at IRD to see if these details are loaded everyday so we can let you know your refund result as soon as possible.
If you have any questions at all – always feel welcome to contact us on info@mytax.co.nz or 0800 672 878
