Does my Statement of Account indicate that I am being audited?

Posted 21 September 2015

I started with a new employer on 1 March 2014 and a full company vehicle is included in my package. Previously I neither had a company car, nor did I receive a travel allowance. My refund this year, as per my ITA34, is much more than in previous years. It seems that the company I work for also deducted almost R1000 per month too much fringe benefit tax from my salary if one compares the SARS calculation to the actual tax paid. I also did not log many private kilometres, since I am not office bound, as a sales rep, and often work from home...

SMS from SARS

Posted 21 September 2015

Dear sir/madam. SARS comes in at my workplace to help us submit tax returns. After submission, I receive a SMS indicating whether I am owed money or if I owe SARS money. If I submit my IRP5 at a SARS branch as opposed to submitting it to them when they come to my workplace, do they process it immediately? Will they immediately send me a SMS informing me if I have monies due to me or due to SARS as well?

Still awaiting my refund from SARS

Posted 16 September 2015

I've been on the phone with SARS every week since I have submitted my 2015 tax return via SARS eFiling on the 31st July, that same day I was asked to submit supporting documents.

SARS Tax Calculator - Is medical rebate taken into account for PAYE or must it still be deducted?

Posted 16 September 2015

If I use your (SARS) tax calculator must I still deduct the medical rebate of R257. 00 per month from the PAYE amount or has a medical rebate already been taken into account when the calculation was done. There is no question about medical contributions in your calculation?

Hello TaxTim, I'm planning on becoming a tutor at a university that I'm currently at and they told me they need my tax number.

My account disappears and I can't log into my profile

Posted 14 September 2015

I have registered for SARS eFiling about 8 times now. They asked for supporting docs as my bank details changed. I have submitted these every single time. And I have faxed my registration form and ID to the number they sent me. But then when I want to log into my profile it keeps saying I have the wrong password. I dont. I have written everything down, after the 3rd attempt of registering I am making sure the info is correct. I get to the point where I supply them with the requested docs and the...

Should I spend time/energy requesting IRP5s every year?

Posted 14 September 2015

Is it worth asking for copies of the IRP5's if they were provided to SARS by the employers/investment houses already?

Since all three were provided directly to SARS and have pre-populated the e-filing, I did not receive my own copies. If SARS decides to audit my tax return would I need to request them or would SARS be satisfied that they actually already have these?

Help! SARS has just informed that I need to submit a 2008 Tax Return

Good day,

Want to register for a tax number?

Posted 8 September 2015

I have been tax exempt since 1997 when I left the forces. Been operating on a ad hoc basis doing upholstery work for people privately at home and never completed any tax forms as such. I left the trade seeing it didn't enhance my life at all living on the edge to provide for family. Started as an independent recruiter in 2008 and earning between R 60 - 120 p/annum. Haven't got a tax number and want to know if I have to register and if so how do I go about to registering for a tax number?
