Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a KRA P9 form used for?
A P9 form is an official employer-issued summary of your total annual earnings. It details the statutory deductions withheld throughout the year, enabling you to confidently file your personal income tax returns on the iTax portal.
Does the annual tax calculator correctly include personal relief?
Yes. The tool applies the mandated standard relief. It multiplies the KES 2,400 monthly allowance by 12 months, resulting in a total annual statutory tax relief of KES 28,800.
Is the SHIF deduction considered an allowable tax deduction annually?
Yes. Similar to the previous NHIF framework, the SHIF contribution is an allowable deduction. It lowers your overall taxable income before the PAYE bands are applied.
