Aug 1st "Completion letter" now "Assessment received"

Posted 13 August 2014

Hi Tim, You have a really good and informative site, that is the best I have ever seen regarding "SARS"...pfft that dreaded name.I received a letter on efilling on 1 August '14 - "Completion letter" and everyone told me I will get the refund money in 2-3 day. Now the status reads "Assessment received". What does this mean??? I changed my banking details and submitted all documents manually and on effiling in July Already.... What shall be the problem or what is taking so long for them to give me a refund???Please help, I am sooo confused as for the people at SARS branches don't know either

Please have a look at our blog article on why you may have a delayed refund from SARS

Otherwise have you phoned the call centre to see if perhaps you have been selected for a further audit?
