Step 4. Confirm the account type for the taxpayer. We’ve included the description below for reference.
| Flexi Account | Advantage Account |
|---|---|
| Transfer my tax as I pay
Flexi accounts are perfect for the everyday user of TMNZ. We will transfer funds to Inland Revenue in the same month as we receive payment automatically. Why is transferring funds automatically a good idea?
Often used by individuals and trusts or small business owners. You can always swap to an Advantage account at a later stage if you would like to begin holding funds in the pool. |
Hold my tax, I want to transfer later
Advantage accounts allow for all the same actions as a Flexi account but with a few extra features to manage more complex tax positions by holding their tax balances in the pool. When is holding funds within the TMNZ tax pool a good idea?
If you want to begin having tax credits transferred automatically, you can switch to a Flexi account at any point. |
Step 5. Confirm the communications preferences for the taxpayer and then click create new account. Your taxpayer will then be ready to use TMNZ.
