Ending standard student loan repayments (New Zealand)
When an employee pays off their entire student loan, the following events occur:
Inland Revenue
The IRD sends the employee a final statement to tell him that their loan account has been closed.
Employee
The employee needs to change their tax code so they:
- Fill out a Tax code declaration form (IR 330).
- Give the Tax code declaration form to their employer.
- Check that they are on the correct tax code on their next payslip.
Employer
- Uses the information in the employee's Tax code declaration form to change the tax code in the employee's record.
- Deletes any student loan deductions from the employee's permanent transactions.
