BJ says: 20 May 2015 at 7:51 Let's say I'm earning R3500 a month. Is that money qualifying for a PAYE tax? In short what should be the basic earnings for one to qualify PAYE tax? |
TaxTim says: 20 May 2015 at 8:37 No this would not qualify to pay PAYE, you need to be earning about R6 200 a month to being paying PAYE. |
BJ says: 20 May 2015 at 9:21 Thanks for a very helpful reply. So in that case I have to take action towards this, because not even my tax number is appearing in my payslip. Hence my employer never asked me about it if I had it before. |
TaxTim says: 20 May 2015 at 10:18 Did they deduct PAYE or only R35 a month for UIF? |
BJ says: 20 May 2015 at 10:48 Thanks. They did diduct both PAYE and UIF. |
TaxTim says: 20 May 2015 at 10:49 Then the PAYE is incorrect. You need to speak to your employer about this. |
