You or a liquidator can ask the Commissioner for a refund from your thinning operations income equalisation account. If you want to apply for a refund, you can do this under section EH 71 or EH 73. If a liquidator has been appointed for you, they can apply for a refund under section EH 75.

When you apply for a refund, you need to explain why you’re asking for it. This is called stating the grounds. You also need to tell the Commissioner how much money you want to be refunded.
