Based on the above, is the audit still in progress

Posted 11 July 2014

I submitted my Tax Return and was subsequently advised that it has been selected for Audit and they requested several documents which I duly submitted.

Posted 10 July 2014

Hi Tim

I did my tax on the 03/07/2014 on eFiling, I submitted all forms needed for the IRP5. This is my first year doing taxes, what I don't understand is that they asked me for more documentation on Monday requesting my Medical Tax certificate, Claims history and my original IRP5 from my company. Am I being audited? Or do they just need supporting documents for the information from my IRP5 form? The only problem is that when I go on my eFiling, the messages keeps saying.... It has be...

Retirement & Provident Withdrawal Tax Refund

Posted 10 July 2014

Good day, on the 25 January 2014 I changed employment and had a withdrawal from my previous employees Retirement and Provident funds of approximately R57200.00 each and I only got approx R42000 deposited in my bank on each. I was taxed on both payouts but does not seem like I am getting a refund on them. On my ITR12 I can see the one payout from Liberty (R57200.00 on source code 3920) but not the other and my issue is that my total rebate is only R 74.00. I really dont think this seems right?

Transfer from one retirement annuity fund to another - how to handle on efiling?

Posted 10 July 2014

During the 2013/2014 tax year I moved a retirement annuity from one fund to another. As part of this process the accumulated value in the "old" RA was paid over as a lump sum into the "new" RA.

As a result, the "old" fund issued me with an IT3a for the lump sum payout. This IT3a used code 3920 for the lump sum payout, with an additional code 4 indicating it is a tax exempt lump sum payment (there is also a tax directive number on the IT3a).

How do I handle this on eFiling when completing my income tax return?...

Office Expenses Disallowed?

Posted 7 July 2014

I have submitted my tax return and submitted the supporting documentation after a request to do so for an assessment/audit. I have received the outcome of the assessment to say that the home office expenses are disallowed. Which is odd, seeing as I went through the same process last year (including assessment) and they were allowed. I have two IRP5's from different employers and for the one, I 100% do the work from home. Is it worth disputing the outcome of the assessment or should I just le...
