I need help to file a tax return for extra income from extra teaching jobs.

[Block]

Hello all,

I need help to file a tax return for extra income I got, from different companies, for extra teaching jobs. I haven't filled a tax return in Japan before.

Is filing my annual taxes, for the extra income, with the national tax office and for municipal tax two separate things or can they be done together?

Also, I don't think I need to mention my main job in the tax return, as far as I know that's all taken care of by my company.

Any advice is welcome.

Thank you.

You can do it online, and there is an English language guide. You have to include the info from your company too (technically you are refiling for the year). If you do a kakutei shinkoku it includes local taxes too.

If you get all of your Withholding Statements - Gensen Chosuhhyo - from all your employers, and go along to the Local Office of the National Tax agency in your City or Ward between Feb 16 and Mar 15, the people there will help you enter all the data into the System there.

You can check whether you have additional deductions you can claim to reduce the tax...
