You must file an income tax Return if you receive a letter, form or SMS from IRAS informing you to do so. It does not matter how much you earned in the previous year or whether your employer is participating in the AIS for Employment income.
If you receive a letter or SMS informing you that you have been selected for No-Filing Service (NFS), you are not required to file a tax return.
Your Notice of Assessment (NOA) or tax bill (digital or paper format) will be sent to you from Apr 2020 onwards. Your NOA is computed based on your auto-included income and previous year’s relief claims, which may be adjusted if you do not meet the eligibility criteria.
