Why does employer put the same amount on code 4005, 4474 and 3810 yet I contribute 100% to own med?

My client was employed in Zimbabwe for 11 of 12 months, so he qualifies as being out of the country for more than 183 days. However, he regularly traveled back to SA on week-ends for a break, so was never out of the country for more than the 60 days in a row as required. Does this then disqualify him from being a non-resident for tax purposes?

Taxation of individual shares versus unit trusts?

  Written by Marc   Posted 15 August 2014

If I purchase equities, as I understand it, I will need to hold each share for at least three years for any profit to be deemed capital (CGT) and not revenue (full profit included in taxable income.
BUT - if I purchase unit trusts, as I understand it, I can sell them at any time (no 3 year waiting period), and only CGT will apply.
Is my understanding correct, or does the three year rule apply to unit trusts as well?
