I don't have my own bank account details
Posted 8 July 2015
Hi,
Please can you perhaps give me some advice? I am busy doing my tax return now and only thinks of it now... I don't have a bank account anymore and my salary etc is getting paid into my Dad's account. What must I do and how must I make to claim it now?
My ID and passport got stolen and I first need to get them before I can open my own account again. Is there any way that SARS can pay the money into the account my salary gets paid to?
Please if you can give me ...

Claim for home expenses
Posted 8 July 2015
If I use your service, will my fee paid to you be deducted to the return and is there a guarantee I will get paid back for the home expenses? I do have a receipt for my laptop and printer, including measurements of the office space which is separate from the house (attached to the garage). I pay a bond for the house, rates and services. I am not sure how to calculate other things like my garden and the helper fees.

Wear and tear allowance on sars code 3713
Posted 8 July 2015
I received a laptop allowance on a monthly basis. Laptop belongs to me. This appears on my IRP5 under source code 3713. I received this over 3 years. Can I claim a wear and tear allowance against this income?
I'm confused if I should claim over 3 years or just a single year as I've read different responses online. Also what supporting docs would SARS require? Would the tax invoice of my laptop be sufficient? Thanks

I am an employed person and have no trouble doing my tax return with SARS e-filing. What I would like to know is the following: Since October 2013 I have been paying my Mom's medical aid, she is a 70 year old pensioner (state pension grant) and not registered for tax.

Depreciation on passenger vehicle
Posted 7 July 2015
Good day,
I bought a 2002 model car which is still in good condition, in June of last year for a financed amount of R109,990. 00 This vehicle is used on a 50% work and 50% private basis. I do not receive a car allowance and this vehicle is paid out of my own pocket. Is it possible to claim depreciation/wear and tear on this vehicle from SARS?
Am keen to know if I am due a refund or not. Earned R42,000.
Posted 7 July 2015
If I earned only R42000 in 2013, having worked for only three months, and paid R6000 in tax, for that earning, over the whole year, is there a possibility I could get a tax refund based on the primary tax rebates and my medical spend of R1000?

Out of Pocket Medical Expenses
Posted 7 July 2015
My Mom is in her late 80s and stays in her own suite in a retirement home and during the day she is independent. However at night she gets confused and therefore stays in the clinic section of the retirement home where she is monitored by qualified nursing sisters or staff nurses. The charge for the overnight stay in the clinic is added to her monthly account. As she is being looked after by qualified nurses at night can she claim this amount as an out of pocket medical expense?
At what point do you become a provisional tax payer?
Posted 7 July 2015
Hi there. The 2014-2015 tax year will be my second tax season as a self employed 'freelance' architect. Last year when I submitted my tax at SARS they said I do not need to register for provisional tax and that they would 'let me know when I needed to' so I just submitted a summary of my income and expenses to SARS at the normal tax time and they verified everything and all was ok. This year I am earning double what I did last year and feeling a bit concerned that I may have missed the magic line which crosses me over into a provisional tax payer? ...
