LIRS clarifies no extension to deadline for filing individual annual tax returns

The Lagos State Internal Revenue Service (LIRS) has clarified that there is no plan to extend the deadline for filing individual annual tax returns beyond its statutory date of March 31.

The Executive Chairman of the agency, Ayodele Subair made this known recently at the LIRS headquarters, Alausa, Ikeja, advising all individual taxpayers, including self-employed persons and employees under the PAYE Scheme in the State to take advantage of the remaining days in March to file their annual tax returns to avoid payment of penalties, as well as other statutory sanctions, which may include prosecution.

A statement signed by the LIRS Head, Corporate Communications, Monsurat Amasa, quoted the agency’s Chairman as saying the obligation to file annual tax returns is stipulated in Section 41 of the Personal Income Tax Act (PITA).  The provision makes it mandatory for all taxable person(s) to file a return of aggregate income from all sources for the preceding year with the State tax authority in which they are deemed resident within 90 days from the commencement of every new year of assessment.

He stated that LIRS has in the last 3 months engaged taxpayers, using various mediums to remind them of their statutory obligations as provided in the Personal Income Tax Act (PITA) Cap P8 2011 (as amended), warning that the agency is therefore set to use the full weight of the law in ensuring taxpayers who fail to meet this obligation are brought to book

The LIRS boss reiterated, “Filing of tax returns in Lagos State can only be done on the LIRS eTax portal using: https://etax.lirs.net. It is therefore mandatory for all taxable persons in the State to register on the eTax portal, which is built purposely for the convenience of taxpayers. eTax is easy, convenient and safe.”

As part of the Agency’s quest to ease compliance obligations for taxpayers, tax officers have been designated at various tax stations to assist individuals to carry out online registration and filing of tax returns on the e-Tax portal.

The agency directed taxpayers to visit its website: www.lirs.gov.ng or follow its various social media platforms: @lirsgovng, email: etaxinfo@lirs.net or call the LIRS customer care hotline: 0700 CALL LIRS (0700-2255-5477) for inquiries.
