BASED on literacy rate of Pakistanis, many doing business in the country do not know the technicality of tax return filing system. In order to encourage them to file income tax return, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) should provide them due assistance.
Free income tax clinics operating in Canada can provide the roadmap. March and April are taken as the tax season in Canada, with the last date for filing returns being April 30. During these days, various advertisements of free income tax clinics appear in Canadian newspapers for the benefit of people who get their returns filed free of charge. This service is provided by Canada Revenue Agency through various community centres across the country.
