The National Board of Revenue (NBR) has extended the deadline for submission of income tax returns up to January 2 (Sunday). 

The NBR has taken the decision as December 31, 2021 is weekly holiday, as per a NBR notification issued on Thursday. 

The deadline was Friday (December 31) and that's why the tax authorities decided to receive 

tax returns from individual taxpayers for the income year 2021-22 on January 2, 2022.

 Tax offices will remain closed on January 1 (Saturday) as it is a weekly holiday.

   The NBR called upon the taxpayers to submit returns within the deadline to avoid penalty for late submission.

   The official deadline for filing income tax return is November 30. But the tax authorities extended the time by one month as the number of return submission was low.
