LO 4: When income tax unpaid
or “Tax credits for Māori authority dividends may be reduced if the authority doesn't pay its tax”

You could also call this:

“Evidence needed for tax credit claims”

You can get a tax credit under section LO 1. However, you need to provide certain evidence to support your claim. If you don’t give all the required evidence, as set out in section 78D of the Tax Administration Act 1994, your tax credit might be smaller. This rule helps make sure that people only get the tax credits they’re really entitled to.
