\"\"<\/a>The deadline for the public to submit the application form for the RM500 Bantuan Rakyat 1Malaysia (BR1M) scheme has been extended to Feb 10, 2012.<\/p>\n

Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah said the form could be submitted at all Inland Revenue Board (IRB) offices and agencies handling the aid.<\/p>\n

The one-month extension came following appeals from those who were unable to submit the form by Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The forms had been distributed since last month to assist households earning below RM3,000 a month.<\/p>\n

Ahmad Husni said successful applicants would be given vouchers which they could cash at all Bank Simpanan Nasional, CIMB and Maybank branches.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe distribution will begin on Sunday and is expected to take two months for completion.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the period, successful applicants will receive letters informing them of the dates and venues of the voucher presentations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe banks will also provide mobile counters for recipients to cash the vouchers which are valid until April 15,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Ahmad Husni said besides the letters, applicants could also check their application status by calling the hotline 1-800-222-500 and 1-300-88-3010 beginning Monday.<\/p>\n

The hotline will operate between 9am and 5pm on working days.<\/p>\n

Unsuccessful applicants can appeal by filling a special form available all IRB offices and the selected agencies.<\/p>\n

The form can also be downloaded here<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong> or MOF’ website (www.treasury.gov.my).<\/em><\/p>\n

As of Tuesday, 3,102,054 applications had been approved from 4,123,713 forms received.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rest are being processed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
