OK 14B: MACA refund of tax credit

You could also call this:

“Refunds or transfers of tax credits for Māori authorities”

When you’re part of a Maori authority, there are times when the authority has to record a debit. This happens in two situations:

  1. When money is transferred under section LA 6(2)(d), and this transfer doesn’t lead to a tax refund. The amount transferred becomes a debit.

  2. When the authority gets a refund under section LA 6(2)(e). The refunded amount becomes a debit.

These debits are listed in a special table called ‘Maori authority debits’ under row 6B, which is about tax credit refunds.

The date of the debit depends on what type it is:

  1. If it’s a transfer, the debit date is when the money is transferred.
  2. If it’s a refund, the debit date is when the money is refunded.

This is how the Maori authority keeps track of these specific financial transactions.
