However, despite tremendous e-Government initiatives to improve efficiency of the government management systems, the actual e-Participation among citizens is still lagging. Hence, this study aimed to explore major factors that might explain e-Participatory behaviour. To this effect, the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was extended and utilised to: (i) determine the level of e- Participation among Sarawak citizens in the income tax e-Filing initiative; (ii) analyse the performance expectancy, facilitation conditions and effort expectancy of e-Filing services; (iii) determine the level of citizens‘ satisfaction of the e-Filing systems and (iv) measure the e-Filing information quality and systems quality from Sarawak citizens‘ perspective. Quantitative methodology was used and selfadministered questionnaire technique was adopted for data collection. The sample size in this study is 507. The results indicated that e-Participation (ß=. 229), Systems Quality (ß=.449), User Satisfaction (ß=.066), and Performance Expectancy (ß=.149) are significant factors for taxpayers‘ intention to use the e-Filing whereas Information Quality (ß=-.159), Effort Expectancy (ß=-.005), and Facilitating Condition (ß=-.039) are not supported.
