PAYE for employee with 2 employers

Posted 5 February 2016

I am sharing a secretary between me and a colleague. We are working in the same office. We pay her a total of R8000 p. M (R4000 each). Obviously PAYE should be deducted based on her total yearly income (R96000) and paid to SARS before the 7th of each month. Is it fine for me and my colleague to split the PAYE and UIF contributions and pay those separately to SARS, and issue her one payslip between us? If so, does she need two IRP5s issued?

Clarity around donation tax on the side of the donee not donor.

Posted 2 February 2016

I registered and wanted to buy one of your packages in order to ask more questions but not sure what to buy. Don't need you to do anything yet because I have a tax practitioner but have certain concerns about how our tax is done. I need to decide what to do. My husband and I are in Christian ministry and mostly receive donations from people who are friends that have nothing to do with our ministry and do not receive ministry from us that could be seen as service rendered. They can and some have also stopped supporting at any time without notice...

We receive a fuel benefit which is indicated as an income ( this in my mind will put me into the next bracket ).

PAYE registration for an employee

Posted 1 February 2016

I own a micro business (a company) that's registered for turnover tax. Up until this point I have had no employees so I didn't register for PAYE, UIF, SDL, ETI, etc. Recently I hired my first employee. This employee earns R3500 p. M. So she won't be paying any income tax. Do I need to register her for PAYE, UIF, SDL and ETI even if she falls below the tax threshold? She is 21 years old and meets the requirements for ETI. If I need to register her, how do I do it? Can I benefit from the ETI?

SARS deducted money from my account without resolving a lodged dispute.

Posted 29 January 2016

In 2013 my employer at the time deducted PAYE but did not pay same over to SARS. Upon receipt of a demand from SARS I lodged a Fraud notification with SARS and my accountant lodged a dispute with SARS. To date no resolution on the matter, other than SARS Debt Department sent a final demand to a redundant email address rather than on E filing as one would expect, which will have then been received by my accountant. Yesterday SARS took my entire bank balance, what do I do?
