You need to file your IR3NR by 7 July unless you have a tax agent or an extension of time. Contact us if you need more time, otherwise we may charge you a late filing penalty.

Before you start

You will need:

  • your IRD number
  • details about the untaxed and taxed income you received in the tax year
  • details about any expenses you want to claim.

In myIR, go to your income tax account

Then select 'More...'

Select 'File or amend a return'

You'll find this under 'Payments, refunds and returns'.

Select your return and follow the prompts to complete it

  • Select your income types.

What happens next

After you submit your return we will let you know any refund you are due or tax to pay.

In most circumstances, you can fix any mistakes you in your return after you've submitted it. You cannot do this if you have made a payment toward a bill when you submitted your return.

You can use our disputes process if you disagree with our assessment.
