Will SARS penalise me for outstanding tax returns?

  Written by Alicia   Posted 30 May 2016

I'm not sure if I disappeared under the radar for some time now due to generating my own income for years barely surviving and then going bank. At that stage I was a provisional tax payer. Years down the line I did contract work making ends meat. I eventually got a secure job since 2013 - probably not earning enough to register as a tax payer in order to submit tax returns? However I think this might be a different scenario now.

Employed by a foreign company, and need to pay over my own tax, how much will it be?

When and how much do I need to pay. I've been a contractor for them from January 2015 to now May 2016

Can I still update my new address with SARS?

  Written by Alicia   Posted 27 May 2016

I worked at one company up until September 2015 and started at a new company in September 2015, when I moved to my new company I also moved house so on my previous employers IRP5 submission it has my old address and on my new Employers IRP5 it has my new address. If 2 IRP5's get submitted to SARS with conflicting addresses to SARS will this have any implication for me?
