What is a Schedule C?

According to the Rule 69 in the Wasiyyat Rules:

Wasiyyat Rules — Rule 69

Rule 69. It shall be obligatory for every Musi to submit to the Wasiyyat office, at the end of every year, a declaration, as set out in Schedule C, in respect of his payments towards Hissa Amad. In case such a declaration is not received, Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyya Pakistan, after giving necessary warning, is entitled to declare the Musi, a defaulter, and shall take necessary disciplinary measures, which may also lead to the cancellation of his Wasiyyat.

Keep Your Hissa Amad Account Up to Date

Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (aba)

"About the Musis, I would also like to say that they should remember that to pay their Chanda regularly and to keep their Hissa Amad account up to date is primarily their own responsibility.

However, the central office as well as the concerned secretaries should also maintain the Hissa Amad account of every Musi and remind/update them about their Chanda status when needed."

What is a Schedule C clearance year?

According to Markaz, your Schedule-C Clearance Year is defined as the last continuous (unbroken) Fiscal Year in which you have submitted a Schedule C without skipping any prior year

Example

If you submitted Schedule-C forms consistently up to Fiscal Year 2020 – 2021. You then skipped 2021–2022, and 2022–2023, but later submitted forms for FY 2023–24 and FY 2024–25. Despite submitting the most recent forms, your Clearance Year remains FY 2020 – 2021 due to the missing years in between.

Refer to the Schedule C email sent by the Wasaya Department to know the Fiscal Years which you have to submit the Schedule C forms for.

Is Schedule C declaration the same as the Budget declaration?

No. The Budget and the Schedule C declarations are two separate and independent submissions.

Chanda Budgets are submitted at the Beginning of the Year, while the Schedule C is submitted at the End of the Year, after the Fiscal Year End on June 30th.

A Chanda Budget represents an estimate of projected income or Chanda you will pay during the Fiscal Year. The Schedule C Declaration reflects the Actual Take Home Income earned during the year and the Chanda that was paid on it, at a rate of 1/10 to ⅓

The Chanda Due in the Schedule C Declaration is NOT the Chanda Budget

The budget submission has no direct connection to the Schedule C declaration

If a Musi earns more during the year than the budget submitted at the beginning of the year, keeping Taqwa in mind, the Musi should pay Chanda Hissa Amad on this additional income as well, and should not report it as an excess payment in the Schedule C declaration.

Where a Musi has paid Chanda on what was actually earned — whether that was more or less than the budgeted amount — Option 1 of the Schedule C declaration should be selected, which states:

Option 1 of the Schedule C declaration

I have fully paid my due Chanda based on the total income derived from various sources, and there are no arrears or excess remaining.
