SARS need return submitted for 2008 and 2009

Posted 10 July 2015

SARS has requested that complete my tax returns for 2008 and 2009. I requested the IRP5 from my HR department but they don't have the records anymore.

Never claimed for a tax refund before, is it possible to get refunds for every year since I worked?

Posted 10 July 2015

I have never claimed for a tax refund ever since I started working, so I need clarity on whether I can claim for every year since I have been employed, I have all my IRP5's, and I'm not so sure if I will get a return on some of them. So I need to know if it is possible that I do not get a tax refund, I pay medical aid, UIF, Provident fund etc. I am actually afraid that I will pay you guys and not get anything in return. Your response will be highly appreciated. Thank You.

Wrong filing of tax provisional instead of individual

Posted 10 July 2015

Good day. I filled my tax via SARS e filing for 201 and it triggered an audit. I got a refund after providing the docs, then after a few days I decided to call the SARS call centre. The guy on the other side told me that I need to file for 2009 and 2011 and that I made a mistake and I filed for provisional tax. They fined me for R2900 interest, now I owe them according to the efilling at the SARS branch. They were not very helpful either, the lady told me I must jus...

Tax up to date but SARS saying I owe them

Posted 10 July 2015

Last year all my outstanding previous years 2006 to 2014 was brought up to date via SARS eFiling and finally having to go into SARS to submit documents. After accumulative penalties deducted (R14k) and an audit I still managed to get a refund which was paid to me 15 July 2014 (11k).

Why am I being audited when all my income, deductions and benefits are reflected on my IRP5?

Posted 10 July 2015

Hi Tim;

I recently completed and sent my tax return via SARS eFiling. I was selected for auditing and asked to provide supporting documents. I have nothing complicated going-on: I earn income only from my employer. All my benefits and deductions with respect to retirement fund and medical aid are all reflected on my IRP5 i.e. I don't have a personal retirement annuity or medical aid scheme outside of those in my salary package; as reflected on my IRP5. So what could be the problem?

Why can't I get R21,000 initially?

Posted 8 July 2015

Hi Tim, thanks for a wonderfully informative site.
On SARS eFilings my tax returns were different from that of what I have on my IRP5 mailed to me by my work, so I corrected it. Which came back as me owing R16000 to SARS so I disputed and loaded the original on, now it shows I'm entitled to a refund after R21000-16000.

I submitted documents as requested and I'm also for audit. My question is will they pick up that I made an error initially and not refund me for the entire amount...

Confused by 4005 codes different on IRP5 and IT3(b)

Posted 8 July 2015

Hi,

The 4005 code on the IRP5 is different from the IT3(b) from the medical aid. Should I have any amount in 4040?

4005 = R 61,550 , but the IT3(b) shows R 58,802
3810 = R 20,506
4474 = R 20,506
4020 = R 7,486
