Michelle says:

hello Mr. Poobalan. My father tried applying for this scheme but was rejected at the counter because he did not have a payslip. According to your website here, it says “jika ada”. I’ve even called the hotline to ask and the guy said it’s fine if don’t have payslip. Just declare the salary and a copy of IC but why does the man at the counter rejected my father for NOT HAVING a payslip?? It’s just a contradiction from 3 parties. Kindly advise.

Posted on January 5th, 2012

poobalan says:

submit at income tax office? is he working? if got problem, then take the officer name and ask to see the supervisor or person in charge. you can also email their hotline for clarification belanjawan2012@treasury.gov.my

Posted on January 5th, 2012

poobalan says:

also can post at their FB: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lembaga-Hasil-Dalam-Negeri-Malaysia/158573418199

Posted on January 5th, 2012

Michelle says:

noted thank you. I’ve just emailed them and their respond is pretty quick. They also advise the same thing i.e take down the name of the officer in charge. I guess I’ll ask my father to try again with the evidence in their email :

“Untuk makluman, dokuman yang diperlukan hanyalah salinan kad pengenalan dan slip gaji (jika ada). Jika tiada slip gaji, tidak mengapa, cuma nyatakan anggaran pendapatan di dalam borang.

Saudari,
Boleh saya dapatkan maklumat kejadian agar boleh kami majukan kepada LHDN untuk siasatan lanjut. Sila nyatakan tarikh, masa, dan tempat kejadian. Jika mengetahui nama pegawai yang terlibat sila nyatakan jua untuk tindakan pihak kami yang selanjutmya.”

Posted on January 5th, 2012

poobalan says:

thanks for the feedback Michelle. sometimes the information flow is disrupted and the counter staff not able to understand the instructions.

Sara says:

Is the dateline really on 10th Jan 2012? or varies from state to state.
Also, will applicants receive the money on the spot or there is a waiting period?

Posted on January 5th, 2012

poobalan says:

deadline fixed on the 10th nationwide so far.

there’s a waiting period as they need to do some verification. if not, anyone will simply get rm500.

Posted on January 5th, 2012

Sara says:

How long is the waiting period and how will successful applicants be informed about it? Phone or letter?

Posted on January 6th, 2012

poobalan says:

According to one report i read, the money is expected to be distributed by end of this month. there’s no details on how the recipients will be informed.

Thanks a lot
Happy new year.

Posted on January 8th, 2012

poobalan says:

1. as far as i know, your parents can each apply separately since they are divorced. age is not an issue.

2. yes, she can apply.

3.submit directly to LHDN office.

my dad is retired but has 2 unmarried daughters living with him, both earning >RM3,000-. Is he eligible to apply??

Posted on January 15th, 2012

poobalan says:

he can apply if his retirement income is less than 3k (example maybe he getting rental income from property, or getting pension, or getting money from children). but don’t worry much just ask him to apply. but the daughters’ can’t apply.

Posted on January 15th, 2012

shasha says:

Bagaimana rm500 dibagi?

Posted on January 16th, 2012

voucher yang boleh ditukar terus kepada wang tunai.

Thank you

Posted on January 16th, 2012

poobalan says:

not sure about those who are bankrupt, but give a try. the form’s free, so you don’t lose anything by trying. or better still, apply under your wife name, and you don’t apply.

Sean says:

Hi all,
may i know the salary below RM3000 is from my father only or addition of all the salary who are working and stay in the same house ? because my sibling are also working now …

thanks
regard

Posted on January 19th, 2012

poobalan says:

its the couple. so if father + mother income is more than 3k, then cannot. but if your father+mother income is less than 3k, one of them can claim. if your siblings married, then can also apply separately if income below 3k, even if stay in the same house.

suthasinie says:

I helped my uncle to submit his BR1M request .he is 65 yrs old.i have received the acknowledge received copy slip from your end on 6.1,2012 upon the application submited.Today 9.2.2012 i received a letter saying that his application was rejected.the letter is dated 2.2.2012.When i called the helpline to enquire on why it is being rejected,they gave an irresponsible answer that the JPN system cant detect his ic number.Is this our problem or the gov’s problem on the system issue.casually they have rejected the request and demand to walk in to a nearest LHDN to re-apply .what is the purpose of us submitting the form together with the ic photocopy?if JPN system itself screwed up and cant detect a citizen’s status ,where shall we complaint.Creating a inconvenient situation whereby getting the elderly man to go again to appeal for this RM 500 .May i know whether u all are checking and approving the application based on criteria’s or only those who votes eligible for this? if the helpline staff can say that this is solely rejected due to system issue,why cant they rectified this from their end itself rather then re-appeal ?

Posted on February 9th, 2012

poobalan says:

hi,

this sounds serious because JPN can’t detect his IC number means he maybe having problem with citizenship. I suggest you go to JPN branch to settle this problem which is more critical than the rm500. for rejected cases, the minister said need to appeal. so i guess that’s your option.
