final newbie questions:

for the kakutei shinkoku ,do you send this electronically or send by post to the local tax office?
have applied for the mynumber card and it states about tax etc being done electronically if have it (e-tax)
can i only do this after i get the card(will be next yr)

sorry-for all the questions

Sadly its all still manual. Even the cities that allow you to do it electronically only allow you to print out the form. You still need to fill it up and send a photocopy of your mynumber card/notice.

Some useful info relevant to this topic, from an email i received from furusato choice.
They will provide from January 2022 a one sheet with all donations made in 2021, downloadable from their website.
Makes the tax declaration a bit smoother i guess.

サービス仕様変更の内容
これまでは、確定申告手続きのために、寄付ごとに自治体が発行していた「寄付金受領証明書」を保管・管理する必要がありましたが、今後は、ふるさとチョイスで行った寄付については、ふるさとチョイスが発行する「寄付金控除に関する証明書」が一枚あれば確定申告の手続きができるようになります。
なお、マイナンバーカードをお持ちの方は、マイナポータルとの連携により証明書の情報を自動入力し、自宅からe-Taxで申告することができます。

Mid-March I believe.

A summary will be helpful, but be sure to keep your receipts, as the tax office may request a look.

thanks-however,as i understood doesnt the choice site put e copies of them all together so you dont need to bother with the ones that get posted?

Yeah, but if you get audited they will probably want individual copies. Better to have them than not.

I just read the email, and it does seem that the summary will now be official. My guess is that relieves the city of the obligation to mail everyone receipts, but we'll have to see.

The tax office did request them from me last summer, so better safe than sorry.

apologies in advance-i have some very basic questions avbout this..
wife and my year end tax returns are done at our work place but have never done a personal filing out for the
furusato nozei and medical expenses(thanks to all on here for pointing me in the right direction!!!)
not sure what meant to be doing so,
here goes with the silly questions..
where do i get the form from -and who does it need to be submitted to? i dont seem to be eligible for the etax thing ..

sorry in advance!

Are you submitting a Kakutei Shinkoku? Or did you do nenmatsu chousei with your company? If you did nenmatsu chousei and you applied for onestop for furusato, the municipality you made the furusato donation to should be sending you a form to fill out and then send back to them. They will contact your own municipality to reduce your residential tax bill.

If you're doing Kakutei Shinkoku, I think the form is with the tax office. You will also need to submit the summary of furusato donations you made (whether from the provider you bought it from as a summary or from the municipality you applied to as some kind of receipt)

i did mine with onestop and also did nenmatsuchousei.

my wife has submitted nenmatsuchousei at work but she needs to submit the furusato nozei..
as i understand , she cannot do one stop as have medical bills to submit as well for the kakutei shinkoku(400,000yen)

so as I understand she needs to submit a separate kakutei shinkoku with just the medical bills and furusato nozei on it...

or will this be a problem as she has alreadt done nenmatsuchousei at work?
is it ok to submit two separate ones??
