IRB SAYS IT CAN COLLECT
OUTSTANDING TAXES EVEN AFTER
DEATH
Sunday, October 1, 2017
The Inland Revenue Board (IRB) says the outstanding taxes is legally empowered
to collect even after someone has died.
According to the Income Tax Act 1967, Section 74 and Section 106, IRB is
empowered to claim a deceased’s outstanding tax from the rightful next-of –kin.
If the next-of-kin is not able to pay the whole sum, IRB advises the next-of-kin to
visit IRB’s office to discuss paying in installments.
Section 74 of the Income Tax Act 1967 states: “Where an individual dies in the
basis year for a year of assessment, his executors shall be assessable and
chargeable to tax for that year of assessment, for the following year of
assessment and, whenever necessary, for any previous year of assessment in
respect of the chargeable income of that individual for any such year of
assessment; and, where they are so assessable and chargeable, they shall be
assessable and chargeable to tax in like manner and to the like amount as the
individual would be assessed and charged to tax if he had not died”.
Section 106 of the same Act allows the government to recover tax due and
payable through civil proceedings as a debt due to the government.
A Facebook post by one Amran Mohamed complaining about the IRB pursuing
his outstanding taxes from his wife after claiming that he had died. IRB made
the explanation in this case, stated that it had mistakenly it had passed away
and apologised for the error.
IRB found that the payee is still alive and would like to apologise to him for the
mistake.
It said a letter of apologized had sent to him and appropriated action had taken
to avoid a similar mistake.
However, IRB has the power to collect outstanding taxes even who had died.

Likewise, if a deceased had overpaid his or her taxes, the rightful next-of-kin can
apply for a reimbursement with the relevant documents.
