It can be modified in the Tax file and Tax Report Details：

2.Tax Report Details: employee's residential information and other information can be maintained.

Click［View］and you can view or edit employee's basic information and spouse information.
The gray field that cannot be edited obtains the data of Staff Information. You need to modify it in ［People］.

You can modify employees’ Basic Information, Income Details, Residential Address Details and Other Details in this page.

Contents of Basic Information in Tax Report Details and Tax File are the same, but they are different in：

Tips😊:
Information in tax report details is only valid in current tax calculation. If the employee has many tax report records, each record needs to be modified separately.
For Example:
Employee’s modified residential and other information in IR56B Tax Report Details 2019 will not be updated in IR56B Tax Report Details 2020. Also, his modified information in IR56B will not be updated in IR56F.
