As always, the People’s Party of Aruba has announced that in September it will begin to help fill out forms on tax revenues. As every year this service will be held at the House of Party Beach. The dates of attendance at the House of the Party are: September 19 and 26, October 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31, November 7, 14, 21, and 28. The hours are from 7pm to 9pm.
On all of these nights there will be a team of experts to help fill out the forms. In this way, as with every year, they can quickly come to the aid of many.
Remind everyone to be prepared with all the documents. This is the letter that will be sent to them:
the tax return form you received at home;
the summary of your income in the year 2022. You can get it from your employer or the company where you work. If you are a pensioner you get this from APFA’s SvBof;
a summary or proof of all other income received in 2022;
Proof of interest paid to the bank on credit card loans you paid in 2022; proof of any additional expenses for medical care of a dependent family member.
proof of expenses for your own or a dependent family member’s education; proof of expenses for caring for a close relative.
proof of other irregular or monthly expenses that you must have incurred in the year 2022.
Please bring all of these when you come to fill out the tax form with us.
In our AVP Party archives we could find an article by Amigoe dated 24 February 1967 where it could be stated that since that time the party has been helping our people with tax issues. In this article in Amigoe it is reported that the leader of the AVP faction, C.A, (ShonA) Eman, has compiled a Bezwaarschrift signed by more than 300 former employees of Lago.
The memorandum was compiled by village attorney Shon A Eman while he was opposing the tax that the government was charging LAGO employees on their “Lay-off Allowance”. Promer Shon A Eman asked parliamentary questions to the Finance Minister regarding the injustice. When he did not receive a response, Shon A Eman drafted a cease-and-desist letter signed by about 300 employees to avoid being taxed on their “Lay-off Allowance”. Local residents of Eman have been fighting for the weather that has developed in the special tax rate that employees come to expect when a couple loses their job and receive a sum of compensation for years of service. Shon A Eman’s youngest son, Mike Eman, said that in the same spirit, we continue to help our people get fair treatment.
