Refund expectation from SARS?



I have a question related to your entry: "What?%u20AC%u2122s the delay with getting my SARS Refund?". I have received my completion letter, so I am done with stage 1. I just wanted to know: Have you had any luck in expediting some refunds at this stage? Would it benefit me to go to a SARS office to try and spur the process on?

Thanks for your help!

Unfortunately all you can do is escalate the matter via the call centre unless a practitioner is hired to go into SARS. You can go in yourself, but we suggest waiting until next week after the season has closed.
