AIS Simplifies the Tax Filing Process for Employees.
AIS employers do not need to distribute hardcopies of the IR8A/IR8S/Appendix 8A/Appendix 8B to their employees.
Instead, employers need to prepare the employment income information that complies with IRAS' format and submit it to IRAS electronically by 1 Mar each year.
Employees may refer to their payslips for details of their employment income and view their auto-included information via the Income, Deductions and Reliefs Statement (IDRS) at myTax Portal when e-Filing their income tax return.
