====================
With the holiday season upon us here is a brief summary of the changes that have gone live this year.
Short-process rulings
==================
You can now apply for a short-process ruling. This is a new way to get a binding ruling on how a tax law applies to a situation. It’s quicker and less expensive than private rulings, which means that more people can get certainty on how tax rules apply to them.
For more information, check out our website: ird.govt.nz/SPR
Ring-fencing rental losses
=====================
New rules apply from the start of the 2019-2020 income year. You will no longer be able to reduce your tax liability by offsetting residential rental property deductions against your other income, such as salary or wages, or business income.
For more information, check out our website: ird.govt.nz/ring-fencing
Investment income
================
Payers of investment income can opt into the new investment income reporting requirements. These will be mandatory from 1 April 2020.
For more information, check out our website: ird.govt.nz/investment-income
Research and Development Tax Incentive
==================================
The Research and Development Tax Incentive is available for the 2019-2020 income year and features a 15% tax credit on up to $120 million of eligible expenditure. You can enrol now. Use the eligibility tool and guidance on our website to find out if your R&D activities meet the incentive criteria.

Research & Development Tax Incentive: preparing for your end of year returns
Businesses wishing to claim the Research & Development Tax Incentive (RDTI) must first enrol through myIR.
To claim for the 2019-2020 income year you will need to:
===============================================
complete an R&D supplementary return electronically
include the value of the tax credit you are claiming in your income tax return, which you will also need to file electronically
file your R&D supplementary return and income tax return by the required dates.
You can do this yourself or ask your tax agent to do it on your behalf.
====================================
The supplementary return is specific to the R&D Tax Incentive. It will be available to enrolled customers through their myIR account and will be visible after the end of their income year. ??To help you prepare, we’ve created a PDF showing the questions you’ll need to answer and the format. ?You can find this PDF on our website.
New Inland Revenue Tax Technical website coming in early 2020
=======================================
To help people find tax technical answers more quickly, we’re building a new Tax Technical website. The new site will be available on, but will operate separately from, the main Inland Revenue site.
==========================================
We’re improving the site in stages throughout 2020, with the first release planned for early 2020. This first release will make it easier to browse and search our tax technical publications, public consultations, and the Tax Information Bulletin (TIB).
==========================================
In the months that follow this first release, we will add more features, including:
The ability to browse for keywords e.g. motor vehicles, depreciation rates
Filters to narrow your results
Better linking between publications and to other websites
Better interlinking of TIB issues and their individual publications.
============================================
The development of a new and improved Tax Technical website follows on from our work to modernise the Inland Revenue website over the past year.
======================
No cheques from 1 March
======================
A friendly reminder that from 1 March 2020 we will stop accepting payment by cheque, including cheques dated after 1 March 2020.
There are several payment methods offered by us and the banks.
