My tax clearance crtificate has expired, how do I renew it?



Hello! I want to renew my tax clearance certificate. How do I do this?

Refunded but still owe SARS money?



I got a refund last year (2012) and went into SARS and they did my submission for me. I phoned SARS to see how to report my previous company as they have not let me have my IRP5 form as yet (it was due by July 2013). I was then informed that I have a recurring penalty of R 13750.00 due to 2007 and 2011 not being submitted.

Surely if I owed them any money they would not have released the refund for 2012? I really need help with this as I am pretty confused.

How do I submit a tax return form online?



I was given a form at work to take it to the SARS office but when I got the in June they said I must bring it in July. I work in a boarding school and I can't take off anytime until school holidays. Is there anything I can do or can I submit it online?

How long will it take to be refunded after resubmitting my tax return?

I started TaxTim then my consultant did my ITR12 for me. Must I still pay?



Hi Tim

I have very ignorantly gone through the steps in completing the return on your system and had entered incorrect information.

Not knowing what to do, I spoke to my ex consultant and he submitted the ITR12s for me.

Would I still need to pay you?
