Songpa-gu, Comprehensive Income Tax and Personal Local Income Tax Can Be Filed in One Place

Operation of Integrated Reporting Center... Reporting Possible Like Tax Office... Report by June 1, Payment Extended 3 Months to Overcome COVID-19 Impact

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) will operate an integrated tax filing center from May 1st, where residents can file both comprehensive income tax and individual local income tax in one place.

This change comes as the individual local income tax, which was previously filed at the tax office, will be transferred to local government filing starting this year.

To alleviate the inconvenience of taxpayers having to visit both the tax office and the district office, the district will operate the integrated filing center in the large auditorium on the 4th floor of the district office for one month until June 1st.

Taxpayers can receive one-stop service for filing comprehensive income tax and individual local income tax by visiting either the district office or the tax office.

The filing deadline is June 1st. However, if taxpayers have suffered direct or indirect damage due to COVID-19, the filing deadline can be extended within three months until August 31st.

The payment deadline is uniformly extended to August 31st for all taxpayers as part of COVID-19 damage recovery measures.

The district plans to ensure smooth operation of the integrated filing center by collaborating with Songpa Tax Office and Jamsil Tax Office through mutual dispatch of staff.

Additionally, separate tax accountants and filing assistants will be assigned within Songpa-gu to assist taxpayers for their convenience.

Along with this, efforts will be made to prevent the spread of COVID-19 within the integrated filing center. Disinfection will be conducted at least once a week, and strict adherence to quarantine guidelines such as temperature checks, mask-wearing verification, and provision of hand sanitizers will be enforced.

Especially, the district anticipates a concentration of users during the filing period and requests that visitors use public transportation.

Mayor Park Seong-su of Songpa-gu stated, “We have established the integrated filing center at the district office to facilitate taxpayers’ convenience,” and added, “We will continue to actively discover projects that meet residents’ needs according to system improvements and carry out trusted and advanced tax administration.”

Starting this year, with the introduction of the simplified filing system, individual local income tax payment slips will be sent together to those eligible for the comprehensive income tax 'Modu Chaeum Filing.' Modu Chaeum Filing is a system that helps small business owners file comprehensive income tax easily by including income amounts and tax payable on the filing form.

Eligible taxpayers are recognized as having completed their filing by simply paying the amount stated on the payment slip without submitting a separate individual local income tax filing.
