Previous company did not forward IRP5 , now I am being penalized.

Posted 21 November 2014

I really hope that you can help me. I have incurred a penalty because my previous employer did not forward my IRP5 for this passed financial year and therefore I did not file for that job's IRP5. Is there anyway that I can resubmit with the additional form? I was owed a rebate but now with the penalty, that is no more, and also if it is possible to resubmit, will a once again receive a rebate?

I really hope that there is a way to rectify this.

You would need to go into SARS and take with you the bank statements, employment contract and payslips from that period to demonstrate that PAYE was in fact deducted. You can also request they reverse the penalty.
