He said the manual process where people had to go to the offices of the GRA to file taxes was cumbersome and therefore prevented many from filing their taxes.
For him, people also explored the paper (manual) system to get fake tax clearance certificates, noting that the introduction of the tax filling App will help to deal with the corruption that has frosted the tax system.
