Hi anon,

For Year of Assessment 2020, the assessment is for income earned from 1 Jan 2019 to 31 Dec 2019.

Thus if you topped up in Jan 2020, you will have to wait till around Mar 2021 to see it reflected when you are filing your taxes/reliefs.

CPF board will automatically send the information to IRAS.

Yes it should be reflected
Check that you don't exceed the cap of 80k in income relief

I did a cash top up to my CPF Medisave early this year in Jan 2020. However, my income tax statement for 2020 did not reflect the tax relief for my cash top up. Am i missing something?

Income year assessment is from 1 Jan 2019 to 31 Dec 2019 right? Means i must faster top up $7k to my SA if i want the tax relief for financial year 2019 is it?

If I contribute my CPF by topping up on 31st Dec 23. Does this top up consider Year 2023 tax relief or Year 2024 tax relief?

If today you’re a self employed and have $20k set aside for tax reduction, which would you choose and why? CPF voluntary contribution VS CPF Cash Top up relief VS SRS contribution?

If I top up $2000 to my CPF SA account, will my income tax for that year be $2000 less (tax relief)?
