What % of total income amounts do we show in each IRP6 to ensure the rebates can be claimed twice

Posted 13 July 2014

Good day

Thanks for your tax articles. I have one basic question, please.

In the case of provisional tax paid for persons married in community or property, what income amounts does one enter into each IRP6 to ensure that one can claim the rebate twice. I have heard I should enter 100% of our total income in my IRP6 and 50% of that same income in my wife's IRP6?

Retirement & Provident Withdrawal Tax Refund

Posted 10 July 2014

Good day, on the 25 January 2014 I changed employment and had a withdrawal from my previous employees Retirement and Provident funds of approximately R57200.00 each and I only got approx R42000 deposited in my bank on each. I was taxed on both payouts but does not seem like I am getting a refund on them. On my ITR12 I can see the one payout from Liberty (R57200.00 on source code 3920) but not the other and my issue is that my total rebate is only R 74.00. I really dont think this seems right?

Transfer from one retirement annuity fund to another - how to handle on efiling?

Posted 10 July 2014

During the 2013/2014 tax year I moved a retirement annuity from one fund to another. As part of this process the accumulated value in the "old" RA was paid over as a lump sum into the "new" RA.

As a result, the "old" fund issued me with an IT3a for the lump sum payout. This IT3a used code 3920 for the lump sum payout, with an additional code 4 indicating it is a tax exempt lump sum payment (there is also a tax directive number on the IT3a).

How do I handle this on eFiling when completing my income tax return?...
