从税务局打电话询问后得到的报税信息由于之前对PR/EP交税的算法比较confuse, 所以今天打了电话去税务局,得到了以下的回答,希望能帮到一些人。不对的地方希望大家赶紧指正,免得误导了别人。
Case1: 如果工作后不申请PR, 先申请EP. 从Local university 毕业之后大多数人是在6月之后才开始工作的。这样的话,对于2006这一年来说,理论上说在新加坡工作的时间应该是大于60天少于183天,根据税务局网站上的说法,这种情况应该算是non-resident status, 那样的话不管是收入多少,都要交15%的税。但是今天跟税务局官员询问的结果是,因为我们在local university 毕业的,所以2006年这一年全年都是在新加坡,用于判断是不是resident status的天数是根据你physically 在新加坡的天数,所以读书的时间也算进去。所以2006年我们的天数是365天,所以应该是resident status. 就根据resident status的tax rate算,一般几个月的工资肯定少过两万,所以第一年不用交税。
Case2: 如果工作之后直接申请PR, 那么在申请PR的当时,就可以拿到一张temp EP, 一般一个多月就可以拿到PR. 所以这个显而易见是用resident status 算,第一年也不用交。以后就看你赚多少了。
Case3: 如果不是从local university 毕业,而且20 (more...)
补充 a little:
Case1:
In addition to favourable tax rates, Singapore tax residents are also entitled to claim various personal relief such as earned income relief, dependant wife/children relief and CPF relief which are not availed to non-resident individuals.
