As the deadline for filing income tax returns 2025 is approaching, you can verify the tax deducted from salary by using the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) online IRIS portal to view the withholding tax reported by your employer.
As a taxpayer, you have access to verify if these deducted taxes are being paid to the FBR. Taxpayers can file an income tax return for the fiscal year 2024-25 until September 30.
Registered taxpayers (IRIS portal users)
- Log in to your IRIS account using your credentials.
- Navigate to the “MIS” tab within the portal.
- Locate the “Payment Details” section under the MIS tab.
This section gives a detailed record of all tax payments made under your National Tax Number (NTN), including those deducted from your salary by your employer.
Non-registered taxpayers
- If you’re a non-registered taxpayer, then request a Tax Deduction Certificate (TDC) from your employer.
- The TDC will provide the exact amount of tax deducted from your salary throughout the fiscal year 2024-25.
