Where do I declare a secondary source of commission income in the ITR12 if the primary is on IRP5?

Posted 5 November 2014

I am an independent contractor operating out of a home office, and earned commission during the year from two sources, however only one of them deducted PAYE. That IRP5 is reflected on eFiling, however there is no section on the ITR12 to declare the second source of commission income. If I select the trade section of the ITR12 then I get a whole income statement to complete; if I do this must I include the IRP5 income as well? Also must I include all my expenses here or rather in the standard de...

Can I deduct bona-fide office rent paid against commission income?

Posted 5 November 2014

My employer requires me to maintain a home office/ study as they do not provide me with an office. Unfortunately I live in a two bed roomed apartment and I did not want to convert the spare bedroom into an office. I managed to rent a granny flat from my in-laws and converted this into a fully fledged office. I pay a monthly rental to them for the use of the office.
The majority of my income is from commission (more than 75%).
Can I deduct the rent paid to my in-laws for my office agai...

Declaration of professional income and how does this relate to local assets and liabilities?

Posted 4 November 2014

Income is earned from writing articles that are published in a magazine. No IRP5 is provided for this remuneration. Do I declare this income in the field "Income other than turnover" and give it a description of "professional income"? Then under the heading "Local assets and liabilities", do I only declare amounts relating to this professional income? For example fixed properties will be zero as the house that I own is not part of this professional income activity?

So it is paid via your...

Company taxing employee on company petrol usage?

Posted 4 November 2014

Hi Tim

My husband has started at a new company as a sales exec. He gets company petrol as a benefit and they've issued him with a company petrol card. However now I've noticed that they are adding the petrol useage to his earnings i.e. if his basic is R5000 they are adding R4000 petrol (varies every month) and then taxing him on R9000 gross instead of taxing him on R5000. They then deduct the R5000 off again but he's paying a lot of tax every month because of them adding in the petrol...

I understand that I cannot claim for her fees because it is a College however I did put in a claim in 2014 for travelling because she cannot use public transport to commute to college because of her lack of communication and hearing, but my claim was rejected.
