Tax Pooling

Questions relating to tax pooling

Questions:

- How long does it take for TPS to confirm a Buy Tax or Sell Tax Request?

TPS is able to confirm most requests almost immediately.

 

- Can buying tax eliminate a late payment penalty?

In most cases, yes.  So long as you purchase the tax you need and transfer it to your taxpayer account within 60 days of your terminal tax date, we can eliminate all late payment penalties.

 

- How do I transfer my tax deposits from TPS' tax pooling account to my taxpayer account at the IRD?

When you have completed your tax return and know how your residual income tax for the financial year, give us a call or email us and at our request Public Trust will instruct the IRD to transfer your tax deposits from the pool into your taxpayer account at the IRD.   If you have underpaid or overpaid your provisional tax, we can also help you sell your overpayment at a profit or buy additional tax.

 

- How long before tax I have purchased is transferred to my account at the IRD?

Transfers are usually completed by the IRD within two weeks of payment of the purchase price.  Transfers of tax deposits will be shown on your online statement of tax balances.
