Review of hometown tax payment

Hometown tax payment is a system where you can donate money by choosing your hometown and local governments you want to support.There is a great advantage that donations are deducted from taxes, and you can receive returned goods such as local specialties to thank the local government.For tax deduction, for example, if the annual salary without a spouse is 5 million yen, the hometown of about 60,000 yen can be paid.The donation in 2021 will be deducted from the resident tax paid after June 2022.There are a wide variety of return items, such as ingredients such as meat, fish, sake and fruits, daily necessities such as home appliances and miscellaneous goods, and local travel tickets.Let's choose a return item while having fun within the amount of hometown tax payment.

The year -end and New Year procedures, three precautions!

The hometown of 2021 can be paid from "January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021".After one day, it will be treated as a donation for 2022, so be sure to not delay.In addition, I will check three points to note about the schedule you need to remember.1.The target of the tax deduction in 2021 is the date of the receipt certificate until December 31, 2021, the hometown tax payment of 2021 is the date of the "donation receipt certificate" that proves that it has donated. It will be up to December 31 year. After a day, it will be a donation for 2022, so be sure to not delay. For example, in the case of a credit card payment, if payment is made by the last minute on December 31st, it may be 2021. In addition, when donating by bank transfer, it depends on the bank, but in many cases it is necessary to make a payment procedure by 15:00 on December 30. Check the bank you are using. Depending on the local government, the application deadline may be set early in December. During the year -end and New Year holidays, there are many people who rush in and pay their hometown tax, and payment processing may be delayed. Check the deadline for each municipality and payment method, and then complete the procedure as soon as possible. 2.The application deadline for one -stop special application is "2022 February 10" until the tax deduction for hometown tax payment is convenient to use the "One -stop special system".If you apply to the target, such as the donated municipality within 5, the resident tax deduction procedure will be completed without a tax return.If you want to use a one -stop tax payment for 2021 hometown tax payment, you must send an application form and a identification document such as My Number Card to the local government that donated the application form by January 10.If you are late, you need to file a final tax return for tax deduction.3.During the year -end and New Year holidays, if you can not find out in the hometown tax payment procedure where the contact window of the hometown tax payment site will be closed, you can contact the dedicated site inquiry, but in most cases, the year -end and New Year holidays.Will be closed.If there are any questions, such as the procedure method and the maximum amount that can be donated, make sure to check it as soon as possible and complete the procedure.
