TaxTim Marc said: 16 November 2015 at 17:54 Do you have an IRP5 which reflects the subsistence allowance under code 3704? |

TaxTim Marc said: 17 November 2015 at 14:16 Yes, you may claim a deemed expense equal to R353 per night away from home if you had to cover meals and incidental costs; or R109 per night away if you had to cover incidentals only (e.g. minor costs such as refreshments, snacks etc). |
