Can I add income protection premiums from 2 financial institutions together for code 4018?

  Written by Marc  

My place of work gives us an income protection policy. On SARS eFiling this is reflected under code 3808 however I have to manually enter it under code 4018. I also privately have an income protection policy from a different financial institution. Do I just add my contributions together and fill it in at 4018? Will SARS allow that or is there a limit in the amount that can be deducted?

Verifying banking details online?

  Written by Marc  

I submitted all the forms on E-Filing and I'm due a tax return. It was submitted on the 7th of July '14. It states that it takes about 5 working days to assess, but still nothing. I haven't been selected for audit. When I phoned SARS they said I need to verify my banking details before they can pay the return. I've never received any notification that that was needed from me, until I phoned them.
Is it possible to do this online or do I have to go to a branch?
