Amending the SARS assessment date?
Posted 7 October 2014
Hello Tim,
SARS' records show that my assessment month or fin year end is Feb. My previous accountant used the financial year end date reflected on my CIPRO company registration for compiling my IFS which is Mar. She then submitted records for until 31Mar.

Posted 7 October 2014
I accidentally clicked "request return" for 2013 on the efiling site. I earned no income that year. Will that affectmy refund that is due to me for a return that I filed for 2014?
