This procedure can be carried out by self-employed workers, by people who receive profits from the stock market and by those who rent properties.


The option of requesting a refund of income tax for 2012 online is now available to taxpayers, provided there is a balance in their favor, Sunat reported .
People who rent out their personal jordan number screening property or real estate (first category), those who receive capital gains from the stock market, mutual funds or others (second category) and self-employed workers with fourth category income can do so.
The first step will be to file the annual income tax return for 2012.
There are two options for this: the Telematic Declaration (PDT) program No. 681 (now available) or through the Virtual Form No. 681, which will be available on the Sunat website starting February 15.
REFUND REQUEST After the declaration, a certificate number will be provided with which the refund can be requested.
To do so, you must use Virtual Form No. 1649, which is also available on the Sunat website. "The online process is faster. You can also submit physical Form No. 4949 ," said Arturo Prado, from the Taxpayer Services area of ​​Sunat.
TOTAL REFUND The official explained that fourth-category workers who register an annual income of less than S/.31,938 have the right to a full refund of the withholdings made on their fee receipts (10% of their salary).
Now, if that amount is divided by 12, it results in S/.2,661 per month. And if the worker estimates that he will earn less than that amount per month in 2013, he can request that the 10% not be withheld anymore, said Prado.
