        "summary": "Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa shared his experience filing his annual income tax return (SPT) for the 2025 tax year using the new Coretax system, revealing an underpayment of Rp 50 million due to multiple income sources from his roles at LPS and the Ministry. He noted that previous years with a single income from LPS resulted in exact payments, and highlighted initial access issues with Coretax, which the government plans to improve in design and integration to better serve taxpayers. This anecdote underscores the challenges of the updated tax system amid Indonesia's ongoing tax administration reforms.",
        "content": "<p>Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa recounted his experience filing\nhis Annual Income Tax Return (SPT PPh) through the new tax system,\nCoretax.<\/p>\n<p>He admitted that upon filing his SPT for the 2025 tax year, he\ndiscovered an underpayment amounting to Rp 50 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnderpayment, around Rp 50 million,\u201d Purbaya stated at the Ministry\nof Finance in Jakarta on Wednesday (25\/3\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya explained that this situation differs from previous years\nwhen he only served as Chairman of LPS, with his income sourced from a\nsingle workplace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you work in multiple places, you\u2019re almost certainly going to\nunderpay, unless it\u2019s just one place. When I was at LPS, I never\nunderpaid; it was always exact because my salary was only from LPS. Now,\nI still have some from LPS and some from here (Ministry of Finance),\u201d he\nclarified.<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged that the SPT filing process was assisted by staff\nfrom the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP). However, there were initial\ndifficulties in accessing Coretax.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the development of Coretax is ongoing to make it\nmore accessible to taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>Improvements will be made both in terms of design and the system\nitself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst, it\u2019s a design flaw. Then there\u2019s the software service or\napplication that connects Coretax with users, to make it faster when\nusing it. So I suspect Coretax here was made complicated, perhaps\nintentionally to create business opportunities. We\u2019ll fix it later,\u201d\nPurbaya concluded.<\/p>",
