(If the worker is a resident of the Palestinian Authority or a resident of Judea and Samaria and is employed in the “area,” you must indicate this fact.)
The NII will automatically receive both information about the opening of the file and the file number from the income tax authorities, and will open a deductions file for you as a new employer.
