TaxTim says: 29 May 2015 at 13:32 Yes you do fall under the same tax bracket system, regardless of how you are paid etc everyone is subject to the same tables. However if you had paid pension and medical then in fact you may have been able to claim deductions and therefore get a refund. You can make use of our SARS income tax calculator to see how much you may or may not receive if you are entitled to a refund. |
