Time frame for refund after submitting documents for review

Posted 13 July 2015

Awesome service - well done on this easy to follow and easy to understand website!

I have completed my tax return on the 2nd of July. I then received an IT34 Assessment which stated that my tax will be verified. I submitted the Medical aid and Retirement Annuity tax certificates as support documentation since these were the only ones I received. In my tax return my IRP5's was already logged - I did not receive any other ones I only have the three in total and they were on my form already...

Submitted Tax Return - No response from SARS

Posted 13 July 2015

Hi Tim, I submitted my SARS e-filing tax return on the 1st of July, but have as yet not heard anything from SARS, this is the first time it has ever taken this long, could there be something wrong on my tax return? I was selected for auditing, as I was the last three years.

Unemployed for the tax year 2014/2015 and paid medical aid contributions but no refund received.

Posted 13 July 2015

Dear Tim

I was unemployed for the tax period 2014/2015 and received 0 income. I however paid my monthly medical for my spouse and one adult dependent which totaled R62,064.00 and unclaimed from the medical aid of R2,874.00.

Why a second round of audits is required - why not do an end-to-end audit first time?

Posted 13 July 2015

I submitted my tax return on 10 July & a correction on 14 July (simple mistake in 1 line item which had zero financial impact). I received notice that I was being audited & was requested to submit documentation (twice) before 16 days later, on 30 July, receiving confirmation that my account had been finalised (with no changes) & that I would receive settlement within 21 working days. Today, a full 20 days after my account was "finalised", I have received notice of the commencement of a second audit & a request to submit the very documentation that was vetted by SARS 3 weeks ago. ...

Audit processes delay

Posted 13 July 2015

I submitted my tax returns for the new tax year on the 2nd July. Simple, just my IRP5 and medical aid tax certicate. They asked for the supporting documents, done this on the 2nd.

The call centre agents are useless. When will I get paid my refund? The amount is -R8500. First time SARS owes me so much money ever. I filed my tax returns early and submitted the docs same time, now why the delay?

Status after audit?

Posted 12 July 2015

Two IRP5 - why is refund lower?

Posted 10 July 2015

I have two IRP5s, when I submit each tax return individually my refundable amount on one is - R28000 on and -R24000 on the other. When I add them together my total refundable amount is -R18000?

I don't understand how the amount would come down? Surely they should be added together?

SARS Refund is a large amount of money. Why and how?

Posted 10 July 2015

Hi

I just completed my tax return and my ITA34 (whatever it's called) showed an amount of R15 000 is refundable to me. Of course, SARS requested proof of documentation; I only uploaded my Retirement Tax Certificate and Medical Aid Tax Certificate - are there any other forms outstanding?

My question is: Why would I be (hopefully) receiving so much money? I started a new position (meaning higher salary and position upgrade) in September 2014 - could this have an impact?

Never claimed for a tax refund before, is it possible to get refunds for every year since I worked?

Posted 10 July 2015

I have never claimed for a tax refund ever since I started working, so I need clarity on whether I can claim for every year since I have been employed, I have all my IRP5's, and I'm not so sure if I will get a return on some of them. So I need to know if it is possible that I do not get a tax refund, I pay medical aid, UIF, Provident fund etc. I am actually afraid that I will pay you guys and not get anything in return. Your response will be highly appreciated. Thank You.

Wrong filing of tax provisional instead of individual

Posted 10 July 2015

Good day. I filled my tax via SARS e filing for 201 and it triggered an audit. I got a refund after providing the docs, then after a few days I decided to call the SARS call centre.

Must my penalty be paid before refund is due?

Posted 10 July 2015

Hi Tim. I submitted my tax return and contacted SARS where they confirmed that my audit has been finalized and I received the letter confirming this. My question is what will happen to the R579 penalty?

Some say my payment will be withheld. Some say SARS will deduct this from my refund, and some say its my responsibility to pay the penalty ASAP. Should SARS not deduct this from my refund for 2015? Please confirm what will actually happen.
