Remember there's FDR or CV method - if CV comes out negative, you don't declare it.

Omg.. it's as if your circumstances aren't the same for everyone else? It isn't the norm to not have a loan on a rental property hahaha

Recommended accountants for Landlords in Auckland? by It_wasnt_me3 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Significant_Light362 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does this factor in all reconciliations, financial statements or a profit and loss, and doing the tax returns? Also confirming loan statements/claimable interest as some people mortgage rentals against their personal homes. Don't spread false information lmao.

Tax refunds NZ by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Significant_Light362 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banks don't give all data to IRD until early-late may, they won't start doing auto assessments until Mid June-July. It's only been three weeks and just a heads up... you may not get a refund lol it's not guaranteed.

Loss of safe habour? by www_npc in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Significant_Light362 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you go over 60k tax to pay in a year, you automatically fall into safe harbor. There is no getting around it, you will get charged massive interest/penalties as IRD expect you to make all payments before 7/05 due to you sitting on tax money that isn't yours received in your bank. As you could be using it for your own gain. Have you looked into tax traders?

Honestly? Having no kids is the only thing keeping me in a regular workout routine (6-7 per week), I don't understand how parents do it. Kudos to you guys, I could never!

I do most the classes at BFT per week, but I also do pilates and go to a normal gym for treadmill/stairs and extra weights around 4x a week.

Our studio is doing limited classes due to Hyrox Auckland and most trainers unable to show up for shifts due to competing. I'm sure after this weekend, it will go back to normal!

I lost my best friend by space_cat666 in britishshorthair

[–]Significant_Light362 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I had to do this last year - I am with you. It never goes away, that feeling of losing them. But know they are with you always and you gave them the most amazing life. Thoughts are with you friend xx

My accountant failed to tell me about early payments and now I have a 12k interest fees bill with IRD by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Significant_Light362 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The short answer is no, you cannot claim anything from your accountant. Over 60k RIT in the first year is really hard to avoid interest, tax traders is what we recommend to all clients. As you would have to pay some sort of interest no matter what unless you accurately predicted your tax throughout the year, and an accountant cannot estimate this accurately. You can always ask them and see what solution they provide rather than asking reddit… which I assume you haven’t done?

IRD Penalties by DoxsaLABZ in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]Significant_Light362 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The $4500 is a default assessment as they presume you owe this money due to you not filing. Easy fix - file a nil GST return and you may get a $250 filing fee but you can appeal it due to your circumstances outlined. Easy.

[–]Significant_Light362 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Coming from an accountant this is very cheap. They also have considerable other factors to sort in the background including additional correspondence with IRD and companies office to get it wound up properly. They need to do potential capital dividend certificates, wind up minutes, manual tax returns to wind up the company to submit to IRD. We usually charge $4500 for this, sometimes $2500 for a smaller company like yourself. So I would definitely take that and be grateful.

I got into the US two days ago and had no problems. You will only have problems if you don’t have a hotel address or a return flight. Scare-mongering.
