E-filing says: 17 August 2015 at 11:06 If I only worked 6 months of a 12 year tax period, should my final tax bracket be based on actual taxable income for the year (e. G. R200k taxable income for 6 months at 25% marginal) or at what the tax bracket would have been, had I earned that salary for 12 months, which would have been R400k (i. E. At 35% marginal)? I paid PAYE on the basis that I earned that salary for a full year (higher tax bracket), multiplied by 6 month/ 12 months. Therefore I feel I have overpaid when I look at my taxable income (only 6 months worth) over the whole tax year. Thanks. |
