Self-employed workers to continue remitting SH.160 to NHIF
A case filed by an NGO has brought temporary reprieve for self-employed workers under the NHIF scheme as they will continue contributing Sh.160 until the case is determined. The self-employed workers have sued the NHIF seeking a review of the new rates that require them to remit Sh.500 every month.
Tax Tribunal to be set-up
The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has developed a Framework that seeks to provide an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism as a means of resolving tax disputes. The Framework aims to enhance KRA’s service delivery, promote trade facilitation and the quality of tax payer compliance and clear the backlog of cases, freeing billions of shillings to the exchequer. This framework will be launched on 9th June 2015, more details will follow afterwards.
