Do people get such a big refund from SARS?

Posted 11 November 2013

Is it possible that year I can get a refund of almost R35 000? I have put in all my incomes and expenses...but am a bit worried. I do have a directive and am claiming for certain expenses as a sole commission earner. Last year was a refund of only a few thousand rands, same as previous year and year before that I had to pay in R55 000 or so as I was new to the whole directive thing and I chose the wrong %. So since then I made sure boss takes off lots of tax.

It is possible yes, depending on your expenses, medical expenses and the structure of your commission taxes paid over.
