Quiz preview

Checking withholding against tax due means:

Comparing PAYE deducted from payslips against your actual calculated liability

Checking whether the tax authority has reduced your tax bill for good financial behaviour

Confirming that your employer sent your tax to the tax authority since you are responsible

Verifying that your employer deducted more than you owe to maximise your refund

Your payslips show total PAYE of 180000 in local currency withheld but your actual tax liability is 210000 in local currency. This means:

No further action is needed since PAYE always covers the full liability

You owe the tax authority an additional 30000 in local currency when you file your return

Your employer owes the difference — it is not your personal obligation

You will receive a 30000 in local currency refund since you were always overcharged
