Monies paid out in tax year 2015/2016 being declared in the 2014/2015 tax year

I retired at the end of February 2015. My Medical Aid contribution was paid by my company for the tax year 1 March 2014 to 28 Feb 2015.
The company also paid for March, April and May 2015 and have added this amount onto my IRP 5 source code 3810 for the 2014/2015 tax year. Should these months value, which fall in the 2015/2016 tax year not be declared in the tax year they were paid?

No, they should provide a new IRP5 for you, or if you are over 65 then these are not taxable contributions.
