⚠️

⚠ Critical Planning Alert — Personal Assessment Has a 6-Year Retroactive Window

Personal Assessment must be elected annually on BIR60 — it is NOT automatic. Many salaried employees and business owners earning over HK$500K miss this election every year, overpaying by HK$8,000–HK$80,000 annually. You can retroactively elect Personal Assessment for up to 6 prior assessment years under s.41(3) of the IRO. TVC contributions for the current year must be made before 31 March.

Thách thức thường gặp

Bạn có đang gặp các vấn đề thuế này?

No Personal Assessment Election

Personal Assessment (s.41 IRO) consolidates all income and can cap your effective rate at 15%. It must be elected annually and is never applied automatically.

⚠ Risk: A five-figure election missed every single year

TVC Contributions Not Maximised

Tax-deductible Voluntary Contributions allow an additional HK$60,000/year deduction. At the 17% marginal rate, this saves HK$10,200/year. Yet most employees have never opened a TVC account.

⚠ Risk: The full HK$60,000 TVC deduction left unused

Suboptimal Married Couple Filing

Dual-income couples often fail to model joint vs. separate assessment. Depending on the income gap, one approach can save HK$8,000–HK$80,000/year over the other.

⚠ Risk: HK$8,000–HK$80,000 per year overpaid

Reactive Rather Than Proactive Planning

Most taxpayers only think about tax after the year ends — when it's too late to adjust income timing, make TVC contributions, or restructure deductions.

⚠ Risk: Irreversible missed opportunities after 31 March
Dành cho ai

Dịch vụ này dành cho ai

Senior professionals earning HK$500K+

At this income level, every unclaimed deduction and unelected allowance translates directly into significant tax savings. We build a comprehensive annual plan covering all 7 deduction categories.

Dual-income married couples

We model your combined tax position under joint assessment, separate assessment, and Personal Assessment to identify the most favourable annual option.

Business owners & directors

We optimise the split between director salary, dividends, and retained profits to minimise combined corporate and personal tax.

Expatriates & cross-border workers

Timing of arrival/departure, offshore workday claims, and DTA treaty relief can dramatically reduce HK salaries tax liability.

Bonus-driven earners (finance, law, banking)

Discretionary bonuses can push marginal income into the 17% band. We advise on TVC contributions, charitable donations, and timing strategies.

Câu trả lời nhanh cho thắc mắc của bạn

Personal Assessment (s.41 IRO) consolidates all your income sources into a single assessment, taxed at progressive rates with total tax capped at 15%. You elect it by checking the box on your BIR60 each year — it is never automatic. You can retroactively elect for up to 6 prior years.

The maximum TVC deduction is HK$60,000/year (combined with qualifying annuity premiums). At 17% marginal rate: HK$10,200/year saving. At 15% standard rate: HK$9,000/year. TVCs must be made before 31 March to count for the current assessment year and cannot be withdrawn until age 65.

The optimal approach depends on your respective income levels and available allowances. Generally, separate assessment favours couples with similar income levels; joint assessment may benefit couples with a large income gap. We model all scenarios annually.

Maximise TVC contributions before 31 March (up to HK$60,000 deduction), make qualifyinging charitable donations (up to 35% of net assessable income), elect Personal Assessment to cap the effective rate at 15%, and for business owners consider deferring bonus payment to the next assessment year.

Yes — you can file amended assessments or retroactive Personal Assessment elections for up to 6 years prior. Common retroactive claims include Personal Assessment elections, home loan interest deductions, and self-education expenses. Our retroactive reviews average HK$100,000–HK$500,000+ in refunds.
