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

Posted 2 September 2013

I have very ignorantly gone through the steps in completing the return on your system and had entered incorrect information. My confusion resulted out of the fact that my employer issued two returns - one for the commission and one for my basic salary. 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?

This would suffice for this tax year. However last tax year, we did not do it like this, since I submitted it with my tax return and got no benefit from it, since my income was not large enough...
