I submitted documents for review and received a completion letter on 17 July 2013, stating that no adjustment has been made to my original assessment (SARS owes me) however, on my ITSA it shows a date of 2013-08-01 with transaction reference 2 and then the transaction value still showing that SARS owes me. What does this mean and how long before they would pay me out? I don't have my own bank account but has registered my mother's bank account on my first ITR12 that I've done la...

I currently live with my parents, on their property. I am looking at purchasing an apartment for R650 000 and renting it out. I have been given the option of paying for this in cash and then paying my family back at their low bond rate of 6.5% (prime -2%).
The property will be rented out for R5500. The expenses on the property (rates and levys) are R1800. So the rental income would be R3700pm. This R3700 as well as another R4300 will be paid monthly to my parents (total R8000pm).

Hi Tim, We are two employers that works in a small company, and after one and a half years we found out that our employer did not pay or fill out the necessary documentation for our tax. We would like to sort this out ourselves as soon as possible - where do we start? Will there be any penalties? How can we work out what this will be? We both started working for the company after University. Personally I break even every month after medical aid contributions, student debt, rent etc. My co-worke...

I filed my husbands tax return this year, and received an ITA34, however I was asked to upload supporting documents for audit. I have done this, and then received a letter of completion 3 days later. However, I still have not received an ITSA, and I don't agree with the amount for refund that they come to. On my SARS profile, it says still being assessed.
What does this mean? Has my husbands return been completed, or is it still being assessed? And what is the best way to dispute a re...

I submitted my return a week ago, and I do not have a medical aid, but did keep all my receipts for medical expenses. They asked me to supply the supporting documents which I did, but it was about 30 pages of receipts first I uploaded the 20 pages and then they told me that I cant upload more than 20 at a time, then in order for me to upload the rest of the 10 I made a dispute NOO document and attached a letter explaining the reason and than I uploaded the rest. I am afraid that I have done th...

Hey Tim, awesome site and very helpful info. I am not sure of my tax number, I was out the country for a few years and before that I was self employed and now again I am self employed. I last worked for a company n SA probably 10 years ago.
We have started 3 businesses since we have been in SA (my wife and I) and the first 2 didn't really get going at all and cost much more than they made which wasn't much at all. They were both Close Corporations but we never got to the stage when we got a bookkeeper in to do anything...
