Chairman Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) Shabbar Zaidi said on Thursday that FBR has launched the 2nd Edition of 'IRIS' portal 'Maloomat' (tax profiling system), containing data of 53 million citizens, giving access to the filers and non-filers to the information about their assets and bank accounts.
According to a tweet of the Shabbar Zaidi on Wednesday, the 2nd Edition of 'IRIS' portal 'Maloomat' has been launched. The information contained is indicative. The purpose is to disseminate the data already available with FBR. He urged the people to visit the portal for accuracy of returns to be filed by September 30, 2019. Under the second edition of 'Maloomat', the FBR has further enriched data with the passage of time.
In June 2019, the FBR and National Database & Registration Authority (Nadra) launched ''Tax Profiling System''. Both filers and non-filers have been allowed to do asset inquiry by accessing the Nadra website or FBR portal being launched. The online FBR tax profiling system has enabled 53 million people to check their bank details, properties, utility bills and travel history data.
The objective is to facilitate citizens to know about their data available with the government and make corrections accordingly. This data containing information about lavished lifestyle of people, expensive wealth, huge expenditure and the undeclared information, can be used for assessment purposes. The data is spread over 2 portals; Nadra and FBR websites. It contains information about bank accounts, properties, travel history, utilities, etc, of 53 million citizens. Anyone can access one's own data to check one's details.
The FBR Tax Profiling System allows the citizens to view their profile created by correlating their data from multiple data sources of assets, expenses and life styles available with the government of Pakistan. Non-tax filers are especially encouraged to view their tax profiles and become part of the tax system.
The portal would be helpful for people as they might know what information is available with the government and they can correct their return filing data if it is incorrect. The information available on both the portals - one created by NADRA and another by the FBR - could be obtained by following the login process after replying to some system-generated questions.
