ITR12 For January as Provisional Tax Payer

Written by Marc
Posted 19 October 2015
I am currently running a business as a sole proprietor and have registered for provisional tax. I have already submitted 2 provisional tax returns for the 2015 tax year (IRP6). Now do I also need to submit a ITR12 for January?
Does TaxTim also help with this type of ITR12, and if so, is it any different from your standard ITR12?
How should I answer the initial TaxTim questions differently?

Cost of rental income tax seems too high

Written by Marc
Posted 19 October 2015
I have declared rental income of a rental income profit of R17445. But SARS are telling me my rental income sent me into another tax bracket and I therefore owe R20308. This seems wrong to me - surely the extra income that is in the new tax bracket should be subject to more tax but I should never make a "loss" by earning more?

Changed jobs and used current IRP5 to file for tax

Written by Marc
Posted 19 October 2015
Hi. I changed jobs last year having worked in the other job until August and started the new job in September, which means I have 2 IRP5 forms. But when I filed for tax the assistant only used the form from the new employer. Is that correct? Does that not give a flawed assessment of the tax returns? Aren't they supposed to enter information from both IRP5 forms? Its puzzling especially when the job change impacted my PAYE significantly.
