ISLAMABAD: For the ease of taxpayers, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has introduced an offline application mode to make it hassle free for the people to prepare their income tax return and wealth statement without internet connectivity.
An official statement released by the board read that the new offline application system will enable taxpayers to fill out returns in offline mode and the forms can be submitted later according to the convenience of taxpayers.
This new mode will not require taxpayers to remain online for an extended period of time.
The PTI-led government is further mulling over ways to introduce more facilitation with strict measures to penalise non-compliant taxpayers.
This initiative of FBR will assist in curbing the slowness of online system and the issues confronted by taxpayers due to internet connection.
The application called Iris-ADX (Asynchronous Data Exchange) has been prepared by the Information Technology Wing of the FBR.
The last date for filing of tax return and statement has been extended till Sept 30.
