The Government of Jersey urges residents who file paper tax returns to submit their 2024 forms by Saturday, May 31, as less than half of taxpayers have done so to date.
More than 18,000 paper submissions have been received, according to the Comptroller of Revenue, but the majority of taxpayers have yet to file. The online filing deadline, which accounts for the growing share of returns, remains July 31.
In 2024, 51% of taxpayers used the digital option, and the government continues to encourage early submission, particularly for paper filers, to minimize disruptions to monthly income tax deductions.
“It is always best to file a tax return early, as this increases the likelihood of monthly tax deductions from employees’ salaries not changing significantly in future months,” said Richard Summersgill, Comptroller of Revenue.
The government added that 88% of 2024 returns submitted so far have been assessed within 30 days, demonstrating continued progress in processing efficiency.
