Good day, I have not paid my provisional tax that was due on 29 February 2016 due to very little money coming in and low on funds. Will all be in order if I don't pay, but can make the full payment on or before the 3rd optional payment?( September if I am correct)

Did you file a tax return by 29th February though?

SARS are still going to charge you a penalty for late submission and late payment on the 2nd provisional even if you make a top up unfortunately.
