Amacaco:
It is funny when you say that TIN is free. That is what the Police will write and say that bail is free but you will be required to pay through your nose before they grant you bail at any police station. Two years ago, I was made to cough out N20,000 before I got my TIN for my company. A month ago, I paid N5,000 for TIN for another company before it was issued to me. When They asked me to come and collect a receipt for my payment, I decided to ignore them because I know it will not be a govt receipt but one printed unofficially as many government officials do these days.
Your statement is not complete. Who made you pay these monies? Tax authorities or third party consultants?

I repeat again, unless you have penalties to pay, TIN collection is free!!!

I was thinking the post was something that showed some online procedure......


Online procedure will help the process better, especially for entrepreneurs whose time is precious and have very limited time to spend on queues and the "whatnot" that the Nigerian bureaucracy (system) gives (Come today, come tomorrow).


#JustSaying
I added the link to the online procedure on the blog proper. Go ahead and check it out.

Although their online platform is still fraught with certain irregularities.

Site not opening and all of that. End of the day, you get to walk into the tax office for your registration.

Regards.

You will need to head to the nearest tax office close to your registered address to confirm the availability of your TIN.

What happens when an incorporated company is yet to start business especially when you have obtained the TIN and expected to file returns or pay your tax by year end?
Do you have business assets already?

I believe filing returns is required by law provided you have incorporated your company and obtained TIN.

Even if you have not commenced business, you would need to file what is on ground. Even if it's a blank returns.

If yes, you will need an individual TIN, if no then a business TIN may suffice.

BusinessHow To Apply For A Tax Identification Number (TIN) In Nigeria by deturla(op): 9:26am On Oct 07, 2017
I have been receiving a lot of calls in recent times about how to apply for TIN in Nigeria. You will find in here all the detailed steps you need to know to apply for your tax identification number.

This is going to be a long read, but please take out time to read this since you NEED IT!


How to apply for TIN

Are you a Nigerian citizen working for a private organization or with the government. You own a business or you have the intention to start one? It is important that you know what a tax identification number is, and not only know but you also possess one.

A lot of small business owners believe that registrating their companies, business names with the CAC is all they need to be known as serious business men/women. However for an entity to be recognized in Nigeria, it goes way beyond registering with the CAC, but also registering for tax.

How to apply for TIN?

Are you a Nigerian citizen working for a private organization or with the government. You own a business or you have the intention to start one? It is important that you know what a tax identification number is, and not only know but you also possess one.

A lot of small business owners believe that registrating their companies, business names with the CAC is all they need to be known as serious business men/women. However for an entity to be recognized in Nigeria, it goes way beyond registering with the CAC, but also registering for tax.

I have your attention right? Let’s start with identifying what exactly is a taxpayer identification number (TIN).

What is a TIN?

The tax identification number (TIN) is a unique identifier for an individual or a company for the specific purpose of tax remittance. The TIN number is prepared by the tax office and issued to individuals or registered business / incorporated companies for proper identification and verification.

Why do I need a TIN?

As a business or individual, TIN is important because that is what shows that you are a registered tax payer in Nigeria, and as you know that tax payment is made compulsory, every company, business, individual must have their own unique tax identification number. After completion of registration with the tax office, the entity or individual is issued a TIN.

Remember that registration for tax is a legal obligation for everyone who is required by LAW to remit taxes in Nigeria.

If your company or business operates for profit and income is generated from Nigeria, then you are required by law to apply for TIN. Please note that incorporated trustees DO NOT require TIN! Take note of THIS!

Do I hear you ask again, why you need a TIN?

What else do I need a TIN for apart from tax identification?

There are other important things that a TIN can be used for apart from identifying a business or individual as a registered tax payer. These things are equally important as well:

1. Opening a of business account
2. Application for government loans
3. For foreign exchange and receipt of capital importation into the country
4. A TIN is necessary for licenses relating to trade, import and export
5. Registration of cars
6. Certificate of occupancy application
7. To obtain the Tax clearance certificate for individuals and companies which shows that you are a tax compliant business
8. To obtain tax incentives, tax waivers and certain tax allowances. Remember the recent pioneer incentive given to TSTV Africa?

How much will it cost me to apply for my TIN?

Applying for TIN is totally free IF YOU DO IT ON YOUR OWN and if you have not incurred any tax penalty based on the time-frame given according to the LAW to obtain your TIN, either as an individual or as a company. There are no fees to be paid unless you intend to employ third parties to assist you in registering and obtaining the TIN.

There could be a lot of bottlenecks in the back and forth involved in liaising with the tax authorities for the receipt of your TIN. It will be better to shift the responsibilities on a third party so you can focus on more strategic aspects of the business.

Application for TIN as a registered company

All registration statements have been made by the Joint tax board on registering for the TIN. If you are also the tech savvy business person, you can do all your TIN registration online by checking the FIRS service platform.

You need to know the various documents you would need to apply for TIN as a company already incorporated. Head over to the Federal Inland Revenue Service office closest to your company’s registered address in the list that is here, with certain documents.

For Registered business names

Also, if you are a registered business name and not an incorporated company. Then you need to apply for your TIN via the VAT registration, there was a recent unification by the FIRS office whereby your VAT number will double as your TIN registration number.

Also, in some situations, registration for TIN also comes simultaneously as registration for companies income tax and also value added tax as stated above. This can be possible if your incorporated business or company has been in operation within six months.

As soon as you receive your TIN, this should be displayed on all your official documents especially instruments of business/ financial transactions like your invoices. This is extremely key and important in the eventuality of a tax audit by any of the tax offices. The fact that the tax office now operates an integrated tax office now makes everything easy for tax payers.

How to apply for TIN: Individuals

Application for TIN as an individual

You have to head over to the nearest Inland Revenue Office along with the original and photocopies of your national recognized ID card like your driver’s license, permanent voters’ card, International passport etc.

You will also be required to complete and submit an application form.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TIN OF AN INDIVIDUAL IS DIFFERENT FROM THE TIN FOR A BUSINESS NAME OR A INCORPORATED COMPANY.

Blogging is now serious Business honestly.

For me though, to make it in blogging as it is right now, if you don't have money to run promotions and hire people to do the social media traction kinda thingy for you, learn SEO!

Dear OP, something is seriously wrong and you need to check that out!

I was searching online for Nigerian blogs with domain authority of 40 and above, and finding blogs with such standards is a herculean task, even my blog still dey learn.

Blogging is a full-time job, not a hobby thingy if one wants to make it.


PS: I need bloggers with a decent knowledge of SEO for an urgent GIG, please quote me ASAP and I will check up your blog. Will reply on this same thread if you make the cut. Or should I create another thread for this?

His case is a little bit complicated because he had a choice of leaving the relationship, seeing that their sexual orientation is different. He must have been so manipulated to endure for long.

It's okay to be hurt and seek ways to move on.

RomanceHow I Was Raped By My Girlfriend! by deturla(op):
Remembering we have been talking about fetishes and a lot of crazy things we do all in the name of love making for quite sometime on my thread? Well,I got another email from a reader and I thought to share.

NOTE: This is very sensitive and I will appreciate mature responses. Thanks a lot!

READ THE E-MAIL

Hello Dee,

Speaking of fetish, this may seem funny to you, but it’s very true because it happened to me. I was raped by my girlfriend all in the name of fetish. This incident happened sometimes back which I am still battling to move on from:


We met two years ago when I was in my finals in the University and she was running her Masters in the same school. I was drawn to her because she was really lively, full of life and like to try out new things. We started out dating after being friends for four months, because I thought she was the best gift life has to offer me, not knowing she would be my worst nightmare.

She liked to explore a lot and she told me she had a very active sexual life, and being a guy who was really into her, I never felt there was a big deal with learning more on Kamasutra, BDSM, and all the kind of new fetish things. Moreso that at that time I did not want to do anything to discredit our budding love. Only if I had known!

We started out by trying new things, from the regular missionary style to more daring ones like position 69 and all. She would make me go down there all in the name of love making and learning new things, some I truly liked, some I did not because my personality and understanding of love making did not go so deep as she wanted it! I am the kind of man everyone could call traditional!

If I had known at that time, I would have called the relationship off, but I was blinded by LOVE? I couldn’t tell till now!

I started resisting whenever she comes up with what she read online, eventually we would end up of sleeping with each other. But as time went on, she began to resist my resistance as well. Having reasons to tell me that trying out new things was the best for our relationship. Eventually but reluctantly she would pin me down and seduce me to make love to her.

I realized that the more she tried all sorts of fetish on me, the more I disliked it. I remembered telling her this was not for me yet she still tried to make me realize that it was a good thing I tried with her and she loves me for making her happy, even though I was not! I thought I was doing the right thing!


She did everything to me, bought vibrators and every other funny things to the point where she sodomized me. It was crazy but I couldn’t still bring myself to leaving the relationship.

Did I enjoy it? Hello NO! Was I weak not to have walked out of the relationship? I DON’T KNOW!

The height of this crazy relationship was when we had a little fight on our romantic life and she told me she was going to punish me sexually. I thought she was going to starve me sexually, only for her to tie me up in the middle of the night and sodomized me anally. From horse whip to greasy oil, she tried all the things I read and see online! It was an agonizing experience and that was the height of it! I told myself I needed to get out of this thing I called a relationship! I knew it was TIME!

I ran away from her. Shut her from my life and had to grow up to stop missing. ( Inspite of what she did to me, I felt like I missed her)

I was drained physically and emotionally, I couldn’t even bring myself to reporting at a Police Station. What will I even tell them? That I was raped by my girlfriend? How will that sound? What will they say?

Till today, I have not been able to get down with women. The thoughts of what happened with my last girlfriend still beats me up and makes me sad emotionally.

She was so manipulative and selfish all through our relationship while she made me feel like I was the selfish one. The things women do to get us to do their biddings!

The relationship drained me inside out and I kept this inside me for a long time, causing me to lose a lot of other better girls that came my way. I feel telling you here and now will loosen the burden and make me fall in love again. Imagine you having fun with family and friends, and suddenly the memories come flooding down and making your lower tummy rumble in sadness and hurt. Till today I still struggle with what she did to me!

This is my story Dee, I hope more guys will come out and share their experiences as well. I feel happy that eventually I was able to share this with you as I have kept this in me for over a year now!


======================================================================================

1. Is being fetish good or bad in a relationship?

2. When a partner wants to do fetish and forces the other part to do his/ her bidding. Can this be said to be RAPE?

3. Do we have any organization in Nigeria who sorts out male rape cases since it seems everyone is sympathetic towards the cause of women rape cases in the country.

4. What do you think about sexual compatibility in relationships? Is it very important or a subject to be overlooked?

I await your comments!

Well, well, well, a Deeper Life bashing thread where many have vented their hate for the Church!!! Reading some comments here, I see people who are :
1. misinformed and do not want to correct their perception by investigation;

2. once members but left due to offences by members/leaders but are still hurting and need some inner healing; root of bitterness defiling many!

3. originally born in Deeper life but grew up with great resentment against the Church because their parents/leaders went about certain things the wrong way and till date, they cant shed that.

4. people who heard that the church emphasizes holiness and joined hoping to be at once surrounded by angels hence when they were disappointed by someone, left but are still bitter!

5. people who are religious but somehow believe Deeper Life forwarded the motion in 1 John 2:15-17 and since they lacked grace to obey pulled out to seek for people who will tell them grace implies that God depreciates certain part of His Word (God Forbid!).

6. others sound as though they will be forced or abducted cheesy to marry there cheesy.

Corollary? Let's focus on the weightier matters of Grace Titus 2:11-14, Holiness Hebrews 12:14 and Power Acts 1:8. rather than fiddling here with non-essentials while the World burns!!!

P.S. for those who are bitter or resentful, settle it and empty your heart; remember He that hates his brother is a murderer and no murderer has Eternal life 1 John 3:15(paraphrased) and Jesus (If you call Him Lord) said:

35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”

Matthew 18:35(read the whole passage to get the background that led to this conclusion)
WoW! I would have loved it if you can share this same exact comment on the blog:

https://www.nairaland.com/4079919/boyfriend-earpiece-whenever-make-love

I got another email this morning again! I don't know whether he is a Nairalander or he is a blog reader. Read below:

What is your fetish, Deedee? I had to send you this email because I read up your blog post about a guy who listens to music while making love with his girlfriend. While a lot of people might think this is weird. Well here comes mine:

I can never last long on my woman if I don’t bite her or lick the blood on her neck or by her shoulder! I know you will be shocked but this drives me crazy and makes me hard.

She has complained about this a lot but I guess she is liking it now since she is a love making freak and knows that she can’t get me hard and strong if I do not get to lick her blood.


Does this make me abnormal Dee? I have had numerous girlfriends but love making with her is different; mind-blowing and physical. I believe we all have our own definition of fetish.

What is your fetish, Deedee?


What do you guys think? Please no pretense on this thread as I am sure a lot of us have our own fetish.

These are all different and beautiful pictures of sifferent deeper life weddings (including d interior decor), so if u don't see a high level of modesty which the Bible talks about, then I don't know what else your looking for (except to condemn people and get condemned too).
The bottom line is the word MODESTY.... People do not have to model their appearance according to what some celebrity (who doesn't know God) will wear.
The big question too should always be "WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?". So if Christ were in your shoes, would he do what you want to do (on your wedding day, as the case may be)? If you can't answer the question aright, then you are about to do something wrong.

And as for Mr Tosyne2much, I would advice you don't say things you don't know (or things you only see at face level). Be sure before you make your assumptions or jump into conclusions.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL. AMEN
This is amazing! Nice pictures.

I'd love to talk to you outside NL. Care to share your line?

Thanks.
BusinessRe: The Rhythm Of A Tax Defaulter by deturla: 12:10pm On Sep 27, 2017
VAIDSNG:
Social media sensation, J.O is a popular entertainer who regularly undertakes live bookings at weddings. He lives a very lavish life, owns expensive watches, vehicles and recently bought a new property in Lekki which was valued at N50 million. J.O hired an accountant to handle all his tax affairs on his behalf; his accountant made filings to the revenue service agency and is expected to pay N1 million per annum as tax.

In 2015, J.O was booked to sing at a wedding in London for which he charged £10,000 and then proceeded on a European and American music tour which netted him over $50,000. However, J.O did not declare any of this additional income.

This is a common occurrence among entertainers, and Nigerians in general who earn money offshore. In a bid to encourage people like J.O to declare all their assets and income and regularize their tax status, the Federal Government launched the Voluntary Assets and Income Declaration Scheme (VAIDS).

The scheme allows individuals to voluntarily declare all their assets and income, and also pay their outstanding tax liabilities without the usual penalties and interest charges. Neither will they be subjected to prosecution or tax audit. The scheme which started on the 1st of July 2017 will run till the 31st March 2018.

Tax payers that declare between 1st July and 31st December, 2017 will enjoy waivers from interest or penalty charges and won’t face prosecution or tax audit. Those that declare between 1st January to 31 March 2018 will face no prosecution, tax audit and won’t have to pay penalty charges, but interest will be payable in full.

So if you are like J.O, we know you like the good life and want a better Nigeria with good roads, electricity, jobs and better infrastructure but that can’t happen if you don’t take advantage of VAIDS. You can still buy watches for the culture while embracing a good tax paying culture.
To find out more about VAIDS please visit our official website: http://vaids.gov.ng/
Nice.
