The P9 form(Tax deduction card) is a very important document that is used when filing individual income tax returns online.

Income tax is a direct tax that is imposed on income derived from Business, Employment, Rent, Dividends, Interests, Pensions among others. Individual Income Tax is charged for each year of income on all the income of a person and based on the Individual Tax Bands and Rates as formulated by the Kenya revenue Authority, KRA.

The P9 form is generated by the employer i.e the Teachers Service Commission for all teachers working under the Commission. Every month, TSC deducts a given amount of money from a teacher’s earnings; this amount is called the income tax or simply Pay As You Earn (PAYE). This amount is reflected on a teacher’s payslip that can be accessed online and is indicated as PAYE Auto.

The good news for teachers is that it is the TSC that deducts this amount monthly and surrenders the same, directly, to the KRA. Thus, teachers are not faced with the burden of having to do this on a monthly basis; all by themselves.

Every employee is entitled to a monthly tax relief of Ksh. 16,896 per annum (Kshs.1,408 per month). People with disability are granted a tax exemption on their income for the first Kes. 150, 000 of their monthly income.
