      How to submit employment income records to IRAS electronically

      It is compulsory for companies with 5 and above employees to apply for Auto Inclusion Scheme (AIS) under IRAS. For a company that has less than 4 employees, it is also encouraged to join AIS too for easier tax processing. 

       

      Note:
      1. You do not need to import your past payroll data for IR8A.
      2. When the form is generated, editing is possible.
      3. Forms are generated once during submission.
      4. Any amendment after the submission is not possible in Swingvy.
