Hi

please advice.. An auditor phoned me this morning to submit a 3 year bank statement for supporting documents since I submitted tax returns for 2013,2014 and 2015. The problem im facing is that a 3 year bankstatement costs R1800... Ive already given them a 1 year bank statement. My question is can I submit an affidavit for the other 2 years saying that I cant afford the R1800 cost of the bank statement which they need to see my parents medical contributions coming out of my account.

You can try giving them that, all they can do is reject it and ask for the bank statement which should ideally be the provided if you can make a plan.
