No IRP5 on liquidated company

The company my wife has worked for has been liquidated in September 2014. She has worked for them form January 2014 until September 2014. Subsequently she hasn't received and IRP5 because of the liquidation (there is a case pending and they say that they cannot issue the IRP5 until the court has made a decision). She does however have payslips and the company did pay tax in the time period she worked for them. She also has a letter from the auditor explaining this. What do we need to do on SARS eFiling?

She would need to go to her local police station and Swear an affidavit giving reasons why she is unable to obtain her IRP5.

She would need to take this into SARS with her payslips, bank statements (if she has) and letter from auditor and they will assist her to complete her tax return. Since this situation does need to be explained to a SARS consultant, it would be difficult to do via SARS eFiling.
