Risk of underestimation of provisional tax in August?
Posted 24 August 2014
If you underestimate your provisional tax in the August submission, but then are better able to more accurately estimate it in February, are you penalised for the under estimation in August? Furthermore, are there possibly any thresholds for underestimation in August which gives rise to a penalty, even if you accurately submit in February. Or is it is you're able to estimate accurately in February, that there are no penalties induced despite the underestimation in August?
What percentage of electricity can I claim when working from home?
Posted 24 August 2014
As a freelancer working from home I realize I can claim certain expenses such as electricity. I have seen several sources indicate that I can claim a percentage based on the size of my home office in relation to my entire home, is that the rule?
My work space is maybe 10% of my home but I can confidently say that at least 30% of my electricity expenses is due to the various electronic equipment running 24/7 in that area. How much can I claim, 10% or 30%?

Do I put out-of-pocket medical expenses under 4020 AND/OR 4040 ? I do not belong to a medical aid
Posted 23 August 2014
I do not belong to a medical aid and was wondering do I put my out-of-pocket medical expenses under source code 4020 or 4040 ? Because the 4040 code is compulsory if you say yes to " did you incur any medical expenses" and in the other questions you say that it must be put in 4020 ? So must 0 be written under 4040 ?

What is acceptable supporting documentation for SARS?
Posted 21 August 2014
I am self employed, I work as a contractor and I was recently told by my accountant to keep all my slips and I just confirmed with him that all my expenses are on my bank statements, as those are my proof of payments, I also enter the information into Pastel online, that lets me track my personal expenses, because those slips just end up fading, so I throw the slips away.

Can my wife claim medical expenses that we pay jointly on her return alone?
