Dupi says: 6 November 2015 at 10:17 I've done my tax return Ok. I received an SMS that I am being audited and that I will receive the amount of refund on 1 Dec. Why must I wait so long, and how can I find out why I'm being audited? |
TaxTim says: 6 November 2015 at 13:57 Unfortunately, the process can take some time. Please read our blog on the SARS Audit verification procedure. Please also read up on Why haven't I received my tax refund yet? The audit process is fairly random and very common, especially in the case of a refund. In some instances, claims such as home office deductions and extra medical may trigger it. |
Dupi says: 6 November 2015 at 14:20 Okay thanks, but what must I do in the meantime? Must I just wait and see if my refund will be paid on 1 Dec or where can I find out what else is needed? I gave everything in with my IRP5 form at the Randfontein branch. |
