The taxman is really trying all it can to net in additional revenue for the the government. The advert on today’s nation (Pg-7) left with a chuckle. :D:D “Forgiven” they say, maybe they are forgiven but how many will comply with the request for amnesty. is KRA finding it difficult to register all landlords in its systems in a project that i think started in 2013, Because should they comply that means that this guys might decide to increase the rent so as to cushion themselves.
If you are a landlord, please comply. If you wont be forgiven now, it will be coercion later, and it will be ugly. Where do you think this gava will get money settle bills?
KRA wanaogopa landlords, a friend of mine who has flats in Kayole told me the a KRA guy once tried to chunguza them ile torture alipata, wacha tu, he was kidnapped, akafungiwa kwa boot ya gari yake akapigishwa raundi mwenda ile design ya MCA wa embu, then akapewa warning, hajawahi kanyaga huko tena. Kuna places hata karau wenyewe hawaezi kanyaga wacha KRA. Most landlords are reluctant to be taxed because they say its unfair.
During the budget reading period there was something about taxing landlords who earn over a million in rent…can someone clarify. Ama ni landlords wote wanalipa ‘rent tax’.
