Mail the Application Documents on the Minato City Supplementary Benefit for Fixed Amount Tax Reduction (Deficiency Payment)

The supplementary benefit for the fixed amount tax reduction will be provided to residents who are unable to receive the supplementary benefit for fixed amount tax reduction payment implemented in FY 2024 because their income for 2024 was lower than the income for 2023 and to residents who are not eligible for the supplementary benefit for fixed amount tax reduction. This will include residents who do not receive the benefits even though they are targeted for low-income households.
