Islamabad, November 7, 2023 – The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) is taking a proactive step in acknowledging taxpayers for their compliance with income tax return filing for the tax year 2023, boosting trust and confidence in the tax system.
The deadline for filing income tax returns for the tax year 2023 lapsed on October 31, 2023, and there has been no further extension granted by the FBR. In a concerted effort to appreciate the efforts of taxpayers, the FBR is sending acknowledgments to individuals and businesses who have diligently fulfilled their tax obligations.
One taxpayer, who recently filed income tax return, shared his experience of receiving an acknowledgment in his personal email and expressed his satisfaction with the FBR’s gesture. The acknowledgment email contained a message of appreciation from the Inland Revenue Service (IRS) of the FBR, which stated, “We acknowledge and thank you for filing your Income Tax Return for tax year 2023. Your act will certainly contribute to the growth and prosperity of the nation.”
The taxpayer regarded this initiative as a positive step toward building trust and confidence between the taxpayers and the tax machinery. It underscores the importance of taxpayer compliance and acknowledges their essential role in nation-building.
Such actions not only foster goodwill but also encourage individuals and businesses to continue adhering to their tax obligations. By recognizing and appreciating the efforts of taxpayers, the FBR aims to improve transparency and cooperation within the tax system and ultimately promote economic growth and prosperity in the country.
Taxpayers are encouraged to regularly check their email accounts for these acknowledgments as a testament to their contribution to the nation’s well-being and financial stability. Compliance with tax regulations not only ensures the smooth operation of government services but also helps in fostering a strong and responsible taxpayer base.
The FBR’s decision to send acknowledgments for income tax return filings is expected to have a positive impact on the nation’s economy, as it promotes responsible tax practices and builds a strong bond between taxpayers and the revenue authority.
