TSC releases list of 2019 Wealth declaration non-compliant teachers: extends deadline

It is a reprieve for thousands of teachers who were unable to file their 2017-2019 wealth declarations by December 31, 2019. This is after the Teachers Service Commission, TSC, extended the deadline by another one week. Via an internal memo to all County Directors (dated January 7, 2020), the Commission dispatched lists of teachers who had not uploaded their details by the earlier deadline.

The data shows that 9,855 teachers did not file their returns and hence have been given an opportunity to comply.

 “Majority of employees complied within the stipulated time. However, 9,855 teachers and 120 Secretariat Staff are yet to submit their declarations, which is a contravention of the law,” reads the memo; in part.

NEW DEADLINE

Those affected will now have to utilize the chance and file their data between 8th – 14th January, 2020.
