The 101 tax form that all employees and pensioners are required to fill out each year has been updated. The new form now includes details in section&nbsp;D&nbsp;on income from scholarships (which are exempt from income tax but must be declared).<\/p>\n<p>2. Section 8 of the 101 form (requests for exemptions and reductions) now includes a new clause for returning citizens, who&nbsp;can receive extra tax credit points provided they check this box and they have a valid &quot;returning citizen&quot; document which is issued by the Ministry of Absorption. A photocopy needs to be attached to the 101 form.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>3. Change in V.A.T. law. The reduction in V.A.T. from it&#8217;s current rate of 16% to 15.5 % has been delayed until Jan 2013. This still doesn&#8217;t mean anything as it still needs to be approved in the bi-annual state budget for 2013-2014. As for now &#8211; no change.<\/p>\n<p>4. Starting in Jan 2011 any payment of subsistence pay (eshel) will no longer be exempt from tax and will not be recognized as a deductable expense by the Israeli&nbsp;Tax Authorities. <\/p>\n<p>5. The minimum annual amount for contributions to charity has been raised to 310 shekels and the maximum has been updated to 7,636,000 shekels.<\/p>\n<p><font size=\"4\">Moshe Egel-Tal, CSPP<br \/><\/font>Founder and CEO, Israpay&nbsp;&nbsp; &quot;making payroll simple&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<span style=\"font-weight: bold\" class=\"Apple-style-span\">Site<\/span>:&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.israpay.com\" title=\"Israpay\">http:\/\/www.israpay.com<\/a><br \/>&nbsp;<span style=\"font-weight: bold\" class=\"Apple-style-span\">Email<\/span>: &nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:my*****@***il.com\" data-original-string=\"mDHiJFruOMw9MhZgssuDXQ==484fdnHWv2d5HdnACaHp6icpR8+UCMGjLGlUNDp8WCyAvs=\" title=\"This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.
