Having lived in New Zealand where the IRD does this, yes. Yes I would.
If they owe you money, you can file. If you owe them money because they screwed up, you don’t need to do anything. This assumes pay as you earn, standard employee status, not entrepreneurial revenue. Easy for the common case.
- philliphaydon 8y agoKiwi living in Singapore. I prefer Singapore's method of deducting it from your bank account directly each month, or you pay your own lump sum. In NZ (and Australia) you have tax withheld, which means the employer holds your tax, they are not obligated to pay that tax for ( i believe 6 months ) so they tend to pay 1/4 yearly or 1/2 yearly, leaving the money in their own account. In Singapore you get your full salary and you pay it yourself, either via lump sum, or monthly deductions from your bank account.
