What’s an Active Filer List?
Those who have filed their Income Tax return before the due date, their NIC will be declared by FBR in the active Taxpayer list on 1st March. This ATL list will be last on next year of Feb.
Whereas those who missed the deadline of FBR and have filed their Income Tax Return after due date, their name will appear after paying additional charges as per FBR policy or schedule for ATL.
Additional charges for ATL:
- Individual Rs. 1,000/-
- AOP Rs. 10,000/-
- Company Rs. 20,000/-
Individuals (salaried person, non-salaried person, Business Individuals or Solo proprietors ) can still have a chance to become a FILER after paying additional charges of ATL and filing returns of last year.
A Filer can enjoy tax benefits up to the next ATL update. Filers can get tax exemptions at bank withdrawals and 50 percent discount at buy and sell of Vehicles and property, sending remittance abroad, gain on prize bond money, bank profits , profit on saving certificates, mutual investment, Vendors can get fifty percent discount on final tax i.e on purchases and many more.
Being a filer is a citizen obligation. Directly or indirectly we all are taxpayers but cannot be a filer till file returns annually. A Filer may not always be a Taxpayer or Filer may be a person who manages their assets or income returns on time at FBR portal.
