Boht se log ye nahi jante ke Section 65F ke tehat aap apna 100% tax wapas (Refund/Credit) bhi karwa sakte hain. Is ki 3 sakhth sharaait hain:

• 80% Remittance Rule: Aap ki saalana export aamdani ka kam az kam 80% hissa banking channel (Direct Bank, Payoneer, Wise) ke zariye Pakistan laya gaya ho.
• Returns Filing: Aap ne 30 September tak apna saalana Income Tax Return jama karwaya ho.
• Withholding Statements: Agar aap ne koi office rakha hai ya mulazim, to unka withholding statement file kiya ho.

3. Step-by-Step Registration Process (Professional Way)
Yahan hum ne dono zaroori registrations ko wazay kiya hai:

• Step 1: FBR (NTN) Registration
• Baghair NTN ke aap na to Filer ban sakte hain aur na hi PSEB mein register ho sakte hain.
• Portal: iris.fbr.gov.pk
• Tariqa: "Registration for Unregistered Person" par jayein, CNIC aur mobile verify karein.
• Business Addition: Apne profile mein "Business" tab mein ja kar apni freelancing category (e.g., Software Development) add karein.
• Step 2: PSEB Registration (Sab se Aham)
• Ye registration bank mein tax rate kam karwane ke liye "Oxygen" ka kaam karti hai.

• Zaroori Documents: 
• 1. CNIC ki scan copy.

• Process: Documents upload karne ke 5-7 din baad aap ko digital certificate mil jata hai.
• Step 3: Bank Ko Notification Dena

• Apne bank manager ko email karein ya branch jayein.
• Unhein apna PSEB certificate aur NTN dikhayein.
• Unhein kahein ke meri incoming payments par Purpose Code (9182 - Software Export) apply karein taake tax sirf 0.25% katay.
