Reimbursed tuition fee?

Posted 5 March 2015

My employer reimburses my tuition fee if I passed all subjects. I am studying a PGDA and I am a trainee. Is the reimbursed tuition taxable?

No the amount they pay for you is not taxable.

The learnership allowance is a deduction in the hands of the employer, but not a taxable benefit to the employee.
