The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) announced through its social media accounts on 2nd January, 2023, that taxpayers now have the convenience of obtaining their Tax Clearance Certificate (TCC) with a single click on the TaxPro Max platform, eliminating the two-week waiting period stipulated in the tax laws. This is one of the most recent benefits offered to taxpayers since the introduction of the TaxPro Max platform in June 2021. While this development is promising and can be improved over time, its success can only be measured by the number of taxpayers who can effortlessly obtain their TCC through a single click, without encountering significant technical or bureaucratic challenges associated with the TaxPro Max platform.
