How to fill the 2019 Wealth declaration form online; the ultimate guide
How to fill the Wealth declaration form online; the ultimate guide and portal

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, portal used by teachers to declare their 2019 assets, income and liabilities is posing serious challenges as it is inaccessible; most of the time. The site has been experiencing massive down times even as the deadline for filling the returns draws near. A spot check on the site shows that it is an uphill task using it during the day and even at night; when it is slightly accessible. Even after successfully filing the returns the system does not send a copy of the filled form to the declared Email address. This, thus, leaves teachers in dilemma; not sure whether their returns have been correctly filed.

What to do. 

To succeed in filing the returns and avoid the last minute rush it is advisable that ;

  • You exercise high levels of patience, when filling the form,
  • Continue trying and refreshing the page until the return is accepted and
  • Try out filling the online form at night when there are fewer users accessing the online portal.

If your return is captured, then you will see a success message (in green) informing you that a copy of the form has been sent to the entered email address.
