Marizette says: 2 February 2022 at 21:34 SARS code 3601 on my IRP5 is incorrect - my employer is saying I received more than I actually got paid. My salary on my IRP5 (source code 3601) is R100 000, I then got deducted R25 000 PAYE, but when I actually got paid I only received R49 000 into my bank account. There are no other deductions on the IRP5. Can I modify it myself on SARS e-filing? This was a once-off payment for work done, but it now seems that my employer underpaid the actual salary. |
TaxTim says: 3 February 2022 at 9:55 You will need to speak to your employer and find out why the salary is higher on your IRP5. Perhaps they under-paid you in error? If however, the IRP5 is wrong and source code 3601 is over-stated, they will need to correct it and resubmit it to SARS. You will need to wait a week or two, check SARS eFiling again and 'refresh' your IRP5. Once the new one appears, you can carry on with your tax return. You cannot modify the IRP5 yourself on SARS eFiling. |
