WQ.2/2022
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TREASURY AND RESOURCES BY SENATOR S.Y. MÉZEC
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 17th JANU ARY 2022
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 24th JANUARY 2022
Question
Will the Minister provide a breakdown of the number of taxpayers who declared rental income in their Income Tax returns for each of the last 8 years; and will she further state how many of those declaring such rental income were non-resident taxpayers?
Answer
Individual taxpayers assessed on rental income by residency of taxpayer:
Residency 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 Resident 6,000 6,040 5,010 4,960 4,930 4,770 4,360 4,070 Non-Resident 740 750 670 580 500 450 440 400 Total 6,740 6,790 5,680 5,530 5,430 5,220 4,790 4,470 Columns may not sum due to rounding Count rounded to nearest 10
To provide information for a full 8 years, it has been necessary to extract data from the legacy system (ITAX) which only identified rental income from local properties. This data set for 2018 onwards will include non-Jersey rental income.
This data set do not include income arising from casual letting (such as lodgers).
"Separately assessed" taxpayers may be counted individually. A "taxpayer" may refer to a married couple or civil partnership.
A single source of property income may be counted against more than one taxpayer where the rental income is shared (for example, between siblings).
