You make it so easy to stay out of the SARS bad books :) Thank you again.

Does Pension Lump Sum Income get added to Normal Income for determining tax liability?

  Written by Evan   Posted 3 September 2015

Do you get taxed twice when withdrawing early before age 65 from a pension fund? So the first tax is when the tax directive is issued by SARS, and then the second when you complete your tax return and declare the lump sum payout as an income. Does this pension lump sum income get added to your normal income to increase your total income when determining tax liability?

Can SARS go back on their policy even though dyslexia is clearly on their list of disabilities?

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 September 2015

In my 2014 tax return I submitted all sorts of forms proving that my daughter is dyslexic and has to attend an expensive school which accommodates her learning disability. They accepted the paperwork and paid me back some of the school fees. This year (2015) they have rejected the same claim and the reason they give is that she does not attend a public school but a private one.

Taxes for a dormant company

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 September 2015

Sometime last year I registered a company, but it has basically been dormant and I only pay the -R60 into my FNB business account every month to cover the fees (and keep my balance in the black). Instead I have just been doing business in my personal capacity and paying personal income tax (and provisional tax of course). I am unsure about about the rules governing companies, do I still need to submit any forms to SARS (or anybody else for that matter)?

I pay for my own medical aid for myself and 3 dependants. I also pay for my pensioner mum and disabled brothers medical aid.

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 September 2015

Hi guys. I spent most of last year in the United States on an academic exchange program. I received a stipend from the US Government and they filed a tax return for me in the U. S. I did not earn significant income in South Africa last year (a small amount of freelancing, adding up to a few thousand rands in total). Do I need to submit a tax return?

Rectify a 2009 tax return. No IRP5s

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 September 2015

I was told that I had a 2009 tax return outstanding. The issue is that the company I worked for (Production company) never provided me with an IRP5. 6 years later and they still haven't and probably never will. I only had two jobs (TV adverts), and I earned under R15 000 and around R4000 in PAYE. I have the slips of what I earned, but no IRP5 for either job. I know one of the companies was reported to SARS fraud. What steps can I take to rectify this situation?
