Changes to Donation Tax Credit

The proposed change would introduce a maximum entitlement of donations eligible for a donation tax credit to the lower of $100,000 or the donor’s taxable income. The current tax credit rate of 33⅓% is being retained. This results in a maximum annual credit of $33,333.33. This change would apply to donations made on or after 1 April 2027.

Client Testimonial

I cannot thank Tax Debt Management enough for the incredible support and outcome they achieved for me. I was drowning in IRD debt of nearly $100,000, and the stress was getting worse every day. I truly felt like I was going to lose my business. Thanks to their expertise, professionalism, and determination, they successfully got my IRD debt completely written off. I would also like to sincerely thank Imran from Advisory Accountants and Saaleha from Tax Debt Management for their guidance and support throughout the process. They gave me a fresh start and confidence to move forward again

Testimonial
Sean - Civil Construction

I was on the brink of losing everything.
IRD pressure had escalated to the point where liquidation proceedings were issued, a real and immediate threat. I had significant tax arrears, returns outstanding, and under extreme pressure. The situation had gone beyond what I could manage on my own.
Engaging Tax Debt Management was the turning point.
From the outset, Imran and his team took control immediately. They got all outstanding returns up to date, helped me understand the true position, and dealt directly with Inland Revenue on my behalf, which took a huge amount of pressure off.
What stood out was their ability to step into a crisis and bring structure to it. Their approach was both practical and strategic. They didn’t just focus on the debt, they worked through the business fundamentals, cashflow, and future viability.
The submission they prepared was detailed, credible, and clearly positioned to achieve the best possible outcome. It shifted the situation from enforcement to a structured recovery.
Without their involvement, I have no doubt my company would have been liquidated. As a result, we were able to put forward a structured proposal, secure tax relief, avoid immediate liquidation, and create a clear pathway forward.
What stood out was their experience, ability to take control in high-pressure situations, and their direct communication. If you are under serious pressure from IRD and don’t act early, you risk losing control completely.
I would strongly recommend Tax Debt Management to any business facing serious tax issues.

IRD Clamping Down on PAYE Default

Inland Revenue has issued Revenue Alert RA 26/01 (16 March 2026) highlighting that failure to remit PAYE deductions is a serious offence. Employers are required to pass on PAYE and related deductions (e.g. KiwiSaver, student loan repayments) by the due date. Failure to do so particularly where funds are knowingly used for other purposes may result in criminal prosecution.

The Alert reinforces that this is not merely a tax debt issue, but one of conduct. Persistent non-payment or using PAYE funds to finance business operations may lead Inland Revenue to treat the matter as enforcement rather than compliance, including prosecution of directors and those involved.

Penalties for breaches include fines of up to $50,000 and/or imprisonment for up to five years. Inland Revenue has made it clear that repeated or deliberate non-remittance will be actively pursued.

The key message is that early engagement is critical. Businesses must stop further non-compliance, ensure current obligations are met, and proactively engage with Inland Revenue with realistic repayment proposals. Delays or avoidance significantly increase the risk of escalation to enforcement action, including liquidation or prosecution.

"I am very happy with the submission, especially the way you have highlighted IRD's obligation to come to the table to renegotiate. I wish I had known about your services from the very beginning.”

Feedback like this is exactly why we do what we do.

Dealing with Inland Revenue can feel overwhelming — but when the situation is properly presented, there is often room to negotiate and reach a practical outcome.

The key is getting it right from the start.I
