Reads Form 106, detects refund triggers (mid-year job change, unemployment, maternity leave, military reserve duty, Section 46 donations, yishuv mezakeh, undeclared credit points, disability, alimony, early keren hishtalmut withdrawal), estimates the refund using 2026 brackets and the 242 ₪/month credit-point value, generates a per-trigger document checklist, and fills Form 135 or routes the user to the online refund portal. Knows the 6-year retroactive window (Section 160 ITO). Use when a salaried employee asks about Israeli tax refund, החזר מס לשכירים, Form 135, missed credit points, miluim refund, or refunds for previous tax years. Do NOT use for self-employed Form 1301 filers (use israeli-tax-returns), payroll math (use israeli-payroll-calculator), stock options (use israeli-stock-options-tax), crypto (use israeli-crypto-tax-reporter), or VAT (use israeli-vat-reporting). Trust score 99/100 (Verified) · 471+ installs · 3 GitHub contributors · MIT license The Problem Hundreds of thousands of salaried Israelis overpay income tax every year and never claim the refund. Mid-year job changes, unemployment, maternity leave, reserve duty, donations, residence in a yishuv mezakeh, and missed credit points all create a gap between what was withheld and what was actually owed. This skill detects refund triggers from Form 106, estimates the refund using 2026 brackets and the 242 ₪ credit-point value, generates a per-trigger document checklist, and produces a filled Form 135 or guides the user through the online refund portal. 1. 1.

How much tax refund am I owed under Amendment 283 and should I claim it in 2026? Section 46 refund I donated 8,000 NIS to a Section 46 approved nonprofit in 2022 and never claimed the credit. What is the process? Yishuv mezakeh check I lived in Kiryat Shmona for all of 2024. Am I owed a yishuv mezakeh refund, and how much? ### Changelog v1.3.0 Major correction: the estimator now carries real per-year bracket tables for 2020-2026 (previously only 2026, behind a --year flag that did nothing), a crash on every reserve-duty calculation is fixed, Example 1 was rewritten after promising a refund in a case that actually owed tax, and the yishuv mutav credit is now quantified with per-locality ceilings. Aug 1, 2026 v1.2.0 Added three tax credits that are never applied at source: discharged-soldier credit points, Section 45(a) for a disabled (natul yecholet) child/spouse, and Section 44 for maintaining a relative in an institution. Added a route to מענק עבודה (EITC) and a warning that filing a refund request opens the tax year to assessment. Jul 6, 2026 v1.1.1 Factual corrections: Bituach Leumi typically UNDER-withholds tax (not over), refund originates from salary side. Updated children credit-point table to 2024+ enhanced schedule (2.5/4.5/4.5/3.5/2.5/2.5 for ages 0-5, mother gets 2 for ages 6-17). Added 1.1.2026 Section 46 digital reporting rule.

Built for angel and VC investors who need to evaluate an inbound deck or data room fast. The real edge: it catches Israel-specific landmines generic tools miss, like Innovation Authority royalty and IP-out restrictions that can shrink or block an exit, the Delaware flip, a broken Section 102 option plan, and founder vesting. Use when an investor asks to evaluate a deal, screen a startup, review a pitch deck, write an investment memo, or prepare diligence questions. Do NOT use for founder-side formation and fundraising (israeli-startup-toolkit), employee option taxation (israeli-stock-options-tax), or public-market stock analysis (tase-stock-analysis).
