Previously, an obligation for an employer/payer of income to prepare an annual personal income tax calculation for an individual existed only in the case of irregular employment income payments during the year.
From the 2010 year, employers/payers of income are obliged to prepare an annual personal income tax calculation, in addition to the December 2010 payroll calculation, if the individual received salary/income during the whole tax period, did not change his/her permanent or temporary residence during the year but during the tax period he/she was on:
· maternity, parental or adoption leave for any period of time;
· sickness leave longer than 42 days;
· other leave, for any period of time, for which compensation is paid at the expense of obligatory insurance funds; and
in all other cases when the tax burden during the tax period differed and the individual is entitled to a refund of overpaid tax/has a tax liability on the basis of an annual personal income tax calculation.
