| dc.description.abstract | This study investigates the impact of education qualification and gender on personal income tax compliance in Kwara State. A questionnaire was administered to 450 respondents in the three local government areas in Ilorin metropolis. Mann-Whitney U test and analysis of variance statistical techniques were employed to analyse the data collected. The results reveal that both educational qualification and gender affect personal income tax compliance. As such, the study recommends that the Kwara State Board of Internal revenue should target the taxpayers with lower level of educational qualifications and male; with a view to directing its audit strategies in respect of the evaders and bridge the tax gap and also to create awareness about the penalty attached to tax evasion. | en_US |
