DWT return in myIR displaying incorrect totals for recipients with multiple dividends

22 November 2021

We're aware of an issue which is causing incorrect totals to display in DWT returns filed in myIR when using the 'Enter online' option. If the return includes recipients that have more than one income detail line item, then the 'Gross dividends' and 'RWT deducted' amounts will show an incorrect figure at the Submission summary step.

This is a display issue in myIR. The returns are processing with the correct figures.

A fix is being worked on to resolve this issue. In the meantime, if you want the correct figures to display when reviewing the return in myIR, you will need to add separate records for each dividend that has been paid including the recipient and the dividend amount on the Income detail line item for each amount.
