NIS contributions paid by an employee or self employed person are not tax deductible.

As a tenant am I entitled to a deduction for rent paid on my tax return?
Deductions for rent paid were allowed up to Income year 2014, however with effect from Income year 2015 rental allowances are no longer applicable.

How do I dispute an assessment or reassessment?
** To dispute an assessment, you may object on-line (via the E-Tax website) within twenty-one days of receiving the Notice of Assessment, stating the precise ground (s) of your objection.

** If you are not satisfied by the decision of the Barbados Revenue Authority, you can appeal to the Appeals Tribunal or seek further recourse in the High Court.

What is Pay As You Earn (P.A.Y.E)?
** PAYE is a withholding tax which was introduced in Barbados in 1957 and simply means ‘Pay As You Earn’. Currently every employee who earns a wage or salary of more than $481 per week or $2083 per month is liable to PAYE.

** The P.A.Y.E. system allows the employee the privilege of paying his or her income taxes for an income year over a longer period than having to face paying a large tax bill when the return is filed.

** It is the best way for employed persons to meet their tax obligations without too much undue hardship as this system simply allows the employee the luxury of paying his or her taxes in fifty-two (weekly) or twelve (monthly) or manageable instalments.
