Main Exemptions
The following are generally exempt from filing: employees with a single employer whose income is below the filing threshold, recipients of pensions or social security only (below threshold), and foreign residents with no Israeli-source income. However, even exempt individuals may benefit from filing – for example, to claim a tax refund due to unused credit points or excess withholding.
When Exempt Persons Should File
Consider filing even if exempt when: you worked for only part of the year (potential refund), you changed employers (potential over-withholding), you have unclaimed credit points, you made pension contributions that qualify for credits, or you donated to Section 46 organizations.
