How you can help yourself?

If you have good cause to show that you would be unable to file and pay on time you should write to the Inland Revenue Department before the deadline for filing and request permission to file your return late, stating the reason for your request. If granted, the late filing penalty will be waived but the late payment penalty and interest charges would still be levied. You may consider paying a fraction of the amount that is due since the late payment penalty and interest would only be calculated on the outstanding balance.
