It is optional for borrowers to declare their PIT deduction entitlement to a creditor. In the event that a borrower does not wish to do so, they are still entitled to PIT deduction, with proof of home mortgage interest payment (Form LY.02) issued by the creditor. | Borrowers must declare their PIT deduction entitlement to a creditor. Otherwise, they will not be entitled to PIT deduction for any paid home mortgage interest. |
Borrowers shall give their consent to the bank before December 30 of a tax year, so that the bank can submit information about their home mortgage interest paid during the tax year to the Revenue Department. Consent granted by a borrower shall take effect from the consent granting year until they submit a notification letter to cancel or change their consent, following the process and conditions specified by the bank.
