Does anyone know whether there has been a change in the tax rate this year? For Jan and Feb., the amount of national tax (���ټ�) withheld from my salary has dropped significantly from the average monthly deduction for the year 2005.

Anyone with a similar change??

The tax site is still showing the same amt of 28,950 for 2mil...I assume there have been no changes unless the web-site hasn't been updated yet(possible). Maybe your place is actually taxing you the right amt for some reason? Maybe the tax man, or pension lady, or health guy came a knockin'?

Kalbi,

What's your salary? How much income tax were you paying? How much are you paying now?

Maybe you were way over taxed before. You might be due a big refund either from the Korean National Tax office if your boss paid in the money, or from your boss if he didn't.

Well.. I generally got a refund in January... so now that I think about it.. maybe they are just choosing to withhold a more accurate amount with no January refund.

Hi,

How do I get my taxes back? I live in another country and would like to do it by computer.
