For the purposes of New Zealand citizenship, tax compliance can be a relevant factor in demonstrating good character and responsible conduct.
The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) states that individuals who receive income that has not had tax deducted at source must file an income tax return before 7 July, unless they have a tax agent or an extension of time.
This includes, among others:
• Self-employment income.
• Overseas income.
• Rental property income.
• Taxable property sales.
• Cash jobs or informal work.
• Income from estates, trusts, or partnerships
Therefore, anyone considering applying for citizenship should ensure that:
• All required tax returns have been filed.
• There are no outstanding obligations with the IRD.
Keeping your tax affairs up to date not only helps avoid potential issues, but may also be important in demonstrating responsible conduct to immigration authorities.
Consult your accountant, and if you do not have one, we can help.
