I am a model and I never got a job in the 2013 financial year but only in 2014.

Posted 7 October 2014

I accidentally clicked "request return" for 2013 on the efiling site. I earned no income that year. Will that affectmy refund that is due to me for a return that I filed for 2014? The efiling status is "Assessment received" and the SARS status is "Return-Data submitted to ITS". Do I need to file the (accidentally) requested 2013 return even though I was not working?

Open the return and click that you were unemployed and file a nil return.
