Can I claim out of pocket medical expenses paid by me and not the medical aid?

Posted 18 November 2013

I would like to know if I can claim for medical expenses incurred this year from SARS?

I do not have a medical aid, I pay all my medical bills from my pocket

You can yes, you would include these costs under the source code 4020 on the Income Tax Return on the Medical Aid Section.
