Student loan arrest warrants may become easier under a new tax bill (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Revenue Minister Simon Watts has identified his target: overseas student loan borrowers who deliberately avoid Inland Revenue communications. A change Parliament has been asked to pass does not expressly require deliberate avoidance to be proved. The change appears in clause 230 of the tax Bill introduced on 10 September. It would widen the offence that underpins student loan arrest warrants. If enacted as introduced, the change would take effect the day after Royal assent. The Minister’s announ
A tax return that's incorrect does not automatically establish tax evasion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nearly 3,000 amended tax returns. Some $4.015 million in bogus expense claims stopped. Five hundred and forty-two amended returns received in a single night. And $151,787 paid out before Inland Revenue introduced a new control. ¹ Those are Inland Revenue’s figures from an investigation launched in August after a specialist team detected unusual returns. Inland Revenue says the scheme appears to have spread through a community or workplace network. What first appeared concentrated in the transpor
IRD made 73,732 student-loan referrals to overseas debt collectors over 4 years (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Inland Revenue is pursuing overseas borrowers on a large scale. I have now seen the other side: once a borrower discloses their true financial position and makes a serious proposal, the new interest-relief provisions can turn an old paper balance into money recovered for the Crown.

The figure comes from an Official Information Act response dat
When the crypto tax bill arrives, the hard part begins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For several years Inland Revenue's approach to crypto assets was largely educational. That has changed: IRD has moved from explaining the rules to actively identifying taxpayers and issuing assessments. In April 2026 it confirmed that it had identified around 355,000 New Zealand crypto users responsible for roughly 57 million transactions worth about $36 billion,[1] and it has begun writing to people it knows have traded on one or more exchanges. From 1 April 2026, New Zealand-based reporting cr
GST is becoming working capital. Why earlier intervention could save viable businesses (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone in the room recognises it. The more important question is not whether it happens. It is why it has become so common. Not universally. Not proudly. Often not even intentionally—at least not the first time. GST has quietly become the buffer between surviving another month and running out of cashflow. As at 30 June 2025, Inland Revenue was owed $3.3 billion in GST debt. Total tax and entitlement debt had reached $9.3 billion. GST alone therefore represented more than one-third of the total
