The system began in 2007 with just 45,000 users but has grown to cover more than 1.1 million people this year, covering about 60 per cent of Singapore's 1.92 million taxpayers.
Under the no-filing service, taxpayers who have been told that they are eligible for the no-filing system will not need to file a return.
They will need to file only if they have additional income to declare or changes to make to personal reliefs.
