~ Begins February 18 through May 2 ~
The Tax Administration of Sint Maarten, in collaboration with the Community
Development, Family, and Humanitarian Affairs (CDFHA) department under the Ministry
of Public Health, Social Development, and Labour, is pleased to inform seniors that
assistance is once again available for filing their 2024 Income Tax Form. This initiative
ensures that eligible individuals receive the necessary support to fulfill their tax
obligations.
In previous years, seniors with a maximum annual income of NAf 15,000 qualified for
this assistance. However, the program has now been expanded to accommodate more
individuals, with the income threshold increasing to NAf 18,000. This expansion means
that more seniors can benefit from the free tax filing assistance offered.
This assistance will be available from February 18 to May 2 at Community Helpdesks
across the island. (Seniors who miss this period can still receive assistance at the Tax
Office by appointment only throughout May). To qualify, applicants must have an annual
income of no more than NAf 18,000 and provide the necessary documents: Wage Tax
Card, Interest Letter, and any other relevant paperwork.
Appointments can be made by visiting your nearest Community Helpdesk Monday to
Friday between 8:30 AM and 12:30 PM or by calling to schedule an appointment at one
of the following locations: 520-3418 (St. Peters), 520-4315 (Cole Bay), 520-7651 (Dutch
Quarter), or 559-0819 (Hope Estate).
Seniors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity and file their 2024 income
tax form before the May 31 deadline.
