Lump Sum Retirement Fund deposit no longer accepted under SARS code 4006 in reassessment

Posted 25 November 2015

Hi. My 2013 tax return was reviewed this tax year and adjustments made by SARS to my Retirement Annuity fund which has now left me owing SARS a large sum of money where the original assessment actually gave me money back.
