Nov-Dec 2019: Upload Donation Receipts in MYIR Anytime During the Year
UPLOAD DONATION RECEIPTS IN MYIR ANYTIME DURING THE YEAR
Recent improvements to myIR mean you can upload your donation receipts at any time, rather than keeping them until the end of the tax year. They can be electronic receipts, or photos or scans of paper receipts.
No more putting receipts in a safe place or accidentally losing them. At the end of the tax year, there’s no need for you to complete a paper form.
As long as your IR3 has been filed you should receive your refund much sooner than before.
For donations to qualify for the tax credit, the charity or organisation must be on our approved list. Check the list at ird.govt.nz/done
Receipts must include:
the donor’s name (or name of their spouse/partner)
the amount and date of the donation
a clear statement it is a donation
the name of the organisation donated to
official stamp/letterhead of the organisation donated to.
