Correction on submission to SARS on individual return

  Written by Evan   Posted 4 August 2015

My Fiance received a travel allowance last year, due to seeing patients at home, she submitted her tax return before putting in her car value along with her mileage that she needs to claim, and hence didn't get any rebate from SARS. Is there anyway in which we can ask for a correction on the tax return from SARS, or what should we do? I am sure she should be due a rebate.

Received an SOA indicating the refund amount a transaction reference and the date being 1 August. That's today but no completion letter.

I have discovered an error on a past VAT return (input tax amount was overstated) and did a "Request for Correction" on efiling.

I then manually calculated the additional amount and paid only that, but am concerned that it seems like a discrepancy, even...
