Printing Appendix 8A, 8B, and IR8A, IR8E, and IR8S Forms

This topic provides an overview of the print Appendix 8A, 8B, and IR8A, IR8E, and IR8S forms processes.

For those employers who are not on auto-inclusion, employees may view the IR8E online and can print the form. For employers that are on auto-inclusion, employers may print the IR8E for the employees' reference without the need to be submitted to IRAS.

Printing the Appendix 8A forms populates the value of benefits in kind field on the IR8A/IR8S Forms - IR8A Income page. A field on the IR8A summarizes the value of benefits in kind that an employee receives. The field becomes populated only when you run the Print Appendix 8A process. The value of benefits in kind is calculated by using the rates that are maintained by using the IRAS Benefit Rates SGP page.

The IR8A/IR8S print process produces the employee's tax year end certificates. You can generate forms for a whole company—that is, all pay groups (and therefore all employees)—or by pay group, or for any number of individual employees. Moreover, you can regenerate forms as many times as necessary. After a form or set of forms is complete and accurate, you can print them. Except where an IR8S is not required, the system essentially treats the forms as two pages of one form. You do not have to create, review, maintain and print one then the other; the process for one is the process for both.

The Self Service IR8E option provides employees access to this PDF form online, available for display on demand. Employees can view or print the forms.

Appendix 8A

Printing the Appendix 8A forms populates the value of the benefits-in-kind field on the IR8A/IR8S Forms - IR8A Income page. This run control page is similar to the Calculate IR8A and IR8S Forms page. You use the Print Appendix 8A Forms SGP page to print the Appendix 8A forms. Select the Reprint Forms check box if you want to reprint any forms. If you don't select the check box, the system prints all forms (within the parameters set) with an issue status of awaiting issue to the employee (where issued equates with printed). When the box is selected, the system prints forms with issue statuses of both awaiting issue to the employee and already issued.

Appendix 8B

Print the Appendix 8B forms for employee's derived gains or profits that are either directly or indirectly from the exercise, assignment, or release of any share option right or benefit where such right or benefit is obtained by reason of any office or employment. Select the Reprint Forms check box if you want to reprint any forms. If you don't select the check box, the system prints all forms (within the parameters set) with an issue status of awaiting issue to the employee (where issued equates with printed). When the box is selected, the system prints forms with issue statuses of both awaiting issue to the employee and already issued.

IR8A/IR8S

Select the Reprint Forms check box if you want to reprint any forms. If you don't select the check box, the system prints all forms (within the parameters set) with an issue status of awaiting issue to the employee (where issued equates with printed). When the box is selected, the system prints forms with issue statuses of both awaiting issue to the employee and already issued. The status should be awaiting whenever you want to print or reprint an Appendix 8A, IR8A/IR8S or IR21 form. If you already issued one of the forms, change the status back to awaiting to reprint it.
