INTRODUCTION The COVID-19 pandemic has affected tax revenues for all countries in the world, this is a challenge for countries that have targeted an increase in tax revenues in the 2021fiscal year. (Brodeur et al., 2021; Thomson et al., 2021). The government was forced indirectly to correct tax revenue targets in line with the economic crisis that occurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (Azad et al., 2021; Tibulca, 2021) Even the government must issue a budget for economic recovery https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc mailto:ambaryusuf26@gmail.com1 mailto:indra@stiami.ac.id mailto:rudikristanto@stiami.ac.id3 https://doi.org/10.52728/ijtc.v2i4.369 The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Compliance Level of Annual SPT Reporting for Individual Taxpayers at the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City Ambarwati, Sobari, Kristanto 305 | Ilomata International Journal of Tax & Accounting https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc to maintain people's purchasing power and prevent an increase in poverty. (Guo & Shi, 2021; Susanti & Widajatun, 2021). The government has considered various fiscal policy strategies that support the post-pandemic economic recovery (Lin & Zhang, 2020) . Tax policy must be designed comprehensively so that the fiscal system can provide a balance of both growth, equity and sustainability, with several main considerations that must be considered by policy makers to formulate optimal tax policies during the COVID-19 pandemic. (Deriu et al., 2021; Lahiri & Yang, 2021) Tax is one of the main sources of government revenue in carrying out state development. As the largest source of funds in the implementation of the Government and development, the role of tax revenues from year to year will increase in supporting national development, this is reflected in the increase in tax revenue plans. The existence of taxes is expected to improve the welfare of all people's lives. The system adopted in collecting taxes in Indonesia is the Self Assessment System, which is a full trust given to taxpayers to calculate, deposit, and report all their tax obligations. This system is used by taxpayers because they are required to fill out an annual SPT tax return, which means that taxpayers are required to calculate and report their income tax payable without going through a third party or tax authorities. Fiskus plays a role in researching the completeness and correctness of reporting as well as conducting inspections to find out the truth of the material in the taxpayer's report, or this case the Tax Return. In practice, this system can increase acceptance because it is carried out by the system that has been implemented. (Cahyadini et al., 2021) The strategy carried out by the Direktoral Jenderal Pajak (DJP) amid the Covid-19 Pandemic is to optimize state revenues from the tax sector through the expansion of the tax base and continue to play a role through improving the national economy, by encouraging investment convenience that can improve the national economy. This was taken by the Direktoral Jenderal Pajak by making a breakthrough in Perppu 1/2020 regarding state financial policies and financial system stability for handling the 2019 coronavirus disease (covid-19) pandemic and/or in dealing with threats that endanger the national economy and/or system stability. finance, providing tax facilities in the form of incentives, and facilitating business processes to become IT and user friendly. The submission of the Annual SPT completeness documents in the form of complete financial reports and various required completeness documents by the Direktoral Jenderal Pajak Regulation Number: 02/PJ/2019, no later than 30 June 2020 by using the corrected SPT form (DJP, articles, Your Taxes Help Erase Covid-19). (Susanti & Widajatun, 2021) It was recorded that until April 19, 2020, it reached 52.97% or 9,712,537 taxpayers out of a total of around 18 million taxpayers. Meanwhile, when compared to last year in the same period, the number of taxpayers who reported reached 11,682,289 taxpayers (Media Indonesia, April 22, 2020). Indonesia's economic recovery trend in 2021 is projected to continue with an accelerated vaccination program with an on-track supply of vaccines. Tax revenue until February 2021 reached IDR 181.8 trillion. This achievement represents 12.6% of this year's tax revenue target. Several tax components grew positively when compared to February last year or the period before the COVID-19 pandemic was enacted. (Realization of APBN 2021, Ministry of Finance). The Ministry of Finance's Direktoral Jenderal Pajak noted that individual income tax (PPh) receipts until the end of February 2021 experienced a contraction or minus 12.51%. Compared to the same period last year, revenue still grew by 19.76%.PPh receipts will continue to move until the reporting period for the Annual Individual Tax Return (SPT) ends on March 31, 2021. The government also provides an extension of the government-borne Income Tax Article 21 incentive (DJP) until June 2021. (Cahyadini et al., 2021) https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Compliance Level of Annual SPT Reporting for Individual Taxpayers at the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City Ambarwati, Sobari, Kristanto 306 | Ilomata International Journal of Tax & Accounting https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc The reporting system carried out by individuals, which often occurs in the field is the misunderstanding of individual taxpayers reporting their SPT returns, mistakes occur such as taxpayers being less careful in calculating the amount of income tax that must be paid. Or underpaid PPh especially using online services using E-SPT which not all taxpayers can understand. With the tax relaxation carried out by the Direktoral Jenderal Pajak it is hoped that taxpayers can carry out their tax obligations properly and do not delay depositing taxes owed, the taxes paid are very much needed by the state in handling the Covid-19 pandemic. The problems that will be studied in this research are, how is the level of compliance of individual taxpayers in submitting annual SPT reports during the Covid-19 Pandemic, as well as what efforts and strategies are carried out by the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City in increasing tax revenues due to impact of the Covid 19 pandemic. This study aims to examine the effect that occurs on individual taxpayer compliance with the impact of the Covid 19 Pandemic and the efforts that will be made to achieve an increase in individual taxpayer compliance in reporting SPT Returns during the Covid 19 Pandemic. The investigation of the coronavirus that causes Covid-19 is still ongoing. Initial information that this virus originated from the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan, China is still conjecture and has not become a certainty. Allegedly since September 2019 Launching SCMP (17/4/2020), the research team from the University of Cambridge, England investigating the origin of the virus has analyzed a large number of strains from around the world and calculated that the start of the outbreak occurred between September 13 and December 7, 2019. The results of the research were published in a scientific journal published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The team analyzed the strains using phylogenetic networks, mathematical algorithms that can map the global movement of organisms through mutations in their genes. While the coronavirus strains found in Europe are largely descended from East Asian variants, the journal only examined the first 160 strains collected after late December 2019. Several institutions predict a weakening of the world economy, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which projects the global economy to grow at minus 3%. The government is wary of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, considering that this outbreak only began to spread in Indonesia in the second week of March 2020. Along with the regulations related to Work From Home (WFH) for both the government and private sectors, a slowdown in business activities began at the end of March 2020 which has the potential to reduce domestic deliveries which will then reduce the receipt of Pajak Pertambahan Nilai Dalam Negeri (PPN DN) in April 2020. This condition is likely to continue and contract further in May, considering that in April some regions had implemented Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB) in several affected areas. In line with the implementation of Work From Home (WFH) and Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB). The government provides tax facilities in the form of relaxation of Article 29 Individual Income SPT PPh Returns, which has an impact on the not yet optimal realization of Article 29 PPh receipts. There are a total of 2,004,445 people to date in Indonesia who have been confirmed positive for the Coronavirus that causes Covid-19. So, accumulatively in Indonesia, 1,801,761 patients have recovered and are negative for Covid-19 so far. The data from several studies carried out above affect the economic conditions throughout the world, as well as the Indonesian economy which is not immune from the impacts caused by the Covid 19 pandemic. The Government's commitment to maintaining the sustainability of state finances to realize the safety and welfare of the community is shown by the Government's efforts https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Compliance Level of Annual SPT Reporting for Individual Taxpayers at the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City Ambarwati, Sobari, Kristanto 307 | Ilomata International Journal of Tax & Accounting https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc to manage the fiscal as well as possible through optimally increasing state revenues, prudent debt management and continuously making efforts to improve the performance of budget absorption. The Impact of the Pandemic on the Business World at the layer of turnover below IDR 5 billion was most significantly affected by the percentage of taxpayers who recorded a decline in sales on the SPT period of PPN DN by 88%, which resulted in a decrease in the source of state revenue. The slowdown in economic activity and the contraction of GDP can also be seen from the decline to minus 2% of state revenue sources in 2020. The 2020 National Economic Recovery budget allocation reached IDR 695.2 trillion with a realization of up to 83% The budget allocation for UMKM with a ceiling of IDR116.31 trillion with a realization of IDR 112.44 Trillion (96.6%) with the aim of the program to support UMKM capital and cash flow during the Covid 19 pandemic in the form of capital assistance either through banks or directly. In 2021 the National Recovery budget will increase to IDR 699.43 Trillion, the budget allocation for UMKM and corporations is IDR 193.74 Trillion with the realization of IDR 41.73 Trillion (21.5%). Taxation support for the economy and handling the pandemic to help maintain people's purchasing power. The government provides PPh Article 21 facilities borne by the Government for workers in sectors affected by the pandemic and have an income of no more than IDR 200 million a year. Utilization of fiscal incentives The 2020 tax has helped maintain business resilience of 464,316 taxpayers in PPh article 21 incentives to increase people's purchasing power 131,889 employers, 1.97 million employees amounting to IDR 1.71 trillion, Incentives to help UMKM PPh Final (PP 23 UMKM) ) for 248,275 UMKM amounting to IDR 0.67 trillion. Continued until May 17, 2021, incentives to increase people's purchasing power on PPh 21 for 89,608 employers amounting to IDR 1.01 trillion and UMKM PPh Final (PP 23 UMKM) for 124,736 UMKM amounting to IDR 0.26 trillion. METHOD This research was conducted using quantitative methods, a process of finding knowledge that uses data in the form of numbers as a tool to analyze information about what you want to know (Kasiram (2008: 149).

Pemerintah berikan insentif pajak untuk dukung dunia usaha dan masyarakat selama pandemi COVID-19 20/04/2020). So that the efforts made by the government in the program to support UMKM capital and cash flow during the pandemic are in the form of capital assistance either through banks or directly. The decline in PPh21 Revenue in 2020 by 0.97% that occurred at the Pondok Aren KPP Pratama was the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic, with the tax relaxation, taxpayers were still reporting and paying annual SPT. Relaxation is well implemented. Even though there was a decrease in income from PPh 21, with the addition of the number of taxpayers with a decrease in taxpayer income due to the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic. CONCLUSION Based on the results of research and discussion on the Effect of the Impact of the Covid 19 Pandemic on the Compliance Level of Individual Taxpayer Annual Tax Returns at the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City, it can be concluded that understanding of regulations and tax benefits has a positive effect on individual taxpayer compliance. . With the policy from the government in tax relaxation during the Covid-19 Pandemic and the benefits obtained from this policy, taxpayers continue to comply with annual SPT reporting even though there is a decline in PPh 21 revenue that occurred in 2020 due to a decrease in people's income and purchasing power. Based on the results of the research that has been submitted, the authors suggest the following; first, to further improve innovation more consistently to involve the public in general in the pioneering of systematic Annual SPT by approaching online counseling or seminars on how to make good use of the policies provided by the government during the Covid 19 Pandemic. Second, to provide support to UMKM in increasing Turnover by preparing cash flow and financial reports which are very important for reporting the Annual SPT. Third, tax policies and treatment are continuously implemented by involving all levels of society. https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Compliance Level of Annual SPT Reporting for Individual Taxpayers at the Pondok Aren Tax Service Office, South Tangerang City Ambarwati, Sobari, Kristanto 312 | Ilomata International Journal of Tax & Accounting https://www.ilomata.org/index.php/ijtc REFERENCE Azad, N.
