13 April 2015 Hi, please advise if it has to be filed for next year also.

In case there are investments in his name jointly - can joint depositor submit form 15H in following year

13 April 2015 Until he does not have any Income in his own hands, he has to file Return of Income.

The joint depositor can submit. However, you will have to update the PAN in the KYC of the Bank as the the other joint holders PAN. Then you can.

13 April 2015 Hi thnx for response. However, in case joint depositor submits his PAN no.- income will be recognized in name of joint depositor as first depositor expired. And this will make her income taxable - which will not make her eligible for 15H.

Any better solution for this - please advise
