Q: 3. What should I do if the employment income information transmitted by my employer / intermediary shown in my Income Tax Return is wrong?

For employment income You will not be able to make changes to the income information transmitted by your employer. For any discrepancy, please check with your employer directly. If there are subsequent amendments to your income information, your employer will transmit details of the amendments to us. We will send you the revised tax bill accordingly. For self-employment income For any discrepancy, you should clarify with your organisation on the correct amount of income and inform them to make any revision if the amount submitted is incorrect. The revised information will be reflected in your Income Tax Return within 7 days after your organisation has submitted the revised records to IRAS. If the revised records are not reflected by the filing due date (i.e. 18 Apr), please amend the "Revenue" field under the "Sole-Proprietorship/ Self-Employment Income" section of your Income Tax Return to reflect the correct amount and submit the Income Tax Return by 18 Apr to avoid late filing penalties. Please note that the revised information will not be displayed if you had already filed your Income Tax Return.
