For current Year of Assessment

Request for an extension of time to file your overdue tax return may be made online via our Request Extension of Time to File digital service at myTax Portal.

This digital service will take about 3-5 minutes to complete and the outcome of your request will be displayed instantaneously. For more information on how to use this digital service, please refer to the user guide (PDF, 1.12 MB).

However, an extension of time to file your overdue tax return is not allowed if a summons to attend Court has been issued to you. You must attend Court on the specified date indicated in the summons and appeal for an extension of time.

Failure to attend Court may result in further legal actions.

For previous Year(s) of Assessment

No filing extensions will be granted as the returns are long overdue.
