I live with my brother at his house, on the CRA01 form where does he fill in and where do I fill in?

He will complete the third and fourth sections asking for the residential address and the "person providing details of residential address" and you would complete section 1. You also need to provide a certified copy of his ID and his rental agreement or deed of ownership. He will also need to send SARS an affidavit confirming that you are living with him, the amount you pay him each month and when you moved in with him.  If you receive any post at that address, you can add that letter too.  Please note that the CRA01 is also used to help SARS with their FICA requirement to update your banking details so it would be best to send them as many details to confirm your address to avoid delaying your refund payment.  Should you plan on moving from this address soon, I suggest that you wait till you are at the new address and then get the new landlord to complete the CRA01 as this is quite a lengthy process.
