844 (2025). Hon Dr Deborah Russell to the Minister of Revenue: How many FamilyBoost claims for the Q4 2024 period, if any, have Inland Revenue declined, and what is the breakdown of the reasons for them being declined?
Hon Simon Watts: I am advised that up to and including 29 January 2025 Inland Revenue have declined 6,814 claims for the quarter ending 31 December 2024. Around 85% were declined due to income over the quarterly threshold. I am further advised that the remainder were declined for a range of reasons including issues related to the invoice, or due to a return not being filed.
