Delayed refund from SARS?

  Written by Marc   Posted 9 August 2015

I submitted my tax rerun for this year and SARS have requested returns for 2011 and 2012. Since they didn't ask for these last year, am I correct in assuming that I didn't need to submit them in the past and will therefor not be penalized?

Submitting old returns?

  Written by Marc   Posted 7 August 2015

Hi there, my wife is due a refund, after following up with SARS they said she needs to submit a return for 2009. The problem as you advised in your article (https://www. Taxtim.
