Filling Nill return

Kenyan citizens who are 18 years old  and above have to file their tax every year.
There has been a warning going around the web telling people to file their tax else they will be fined a particular fee.
Well I did not believe this , don't blame me am a student -still learning ,but any way so I finally decided to file my tax for the year 2015.

I tried to enter the data for the financial year 2015 it failed and I was told had to file tax for the year 2014 first that was last year by the way.

Now at first I had a problem file the tax but after reading their documentation i got an idea on how to fill the form since I was not earning any thing .

After I was done  there was a receipt sent to my mail  and a threatening message from KRA giving me a 30 days notice to pay the fine  or  "failure to which attracts collection
enforcement measures." I did not really know what this statement really meant  so what I pictured in mind was me surrounded with several police men and women with guns pointing at me - So I decided that I will pay them their money .
