Monthly provisional tax payment and foreign exempt income

  Written by Marc   Posted 7 February 2016

Context: I am paid by a foreign employer in USD and will be processing tax payments in my own capacity. I understand from previous questions that I should register as a Provisional Tax Payer. I have two questions:
1) Is it possible to make monthly payments to SARS instead of at the 2 periods in time? If yes, how?
2) I will likely have to work outside the country for period of 183 days/ 61 days continuously - how do I go about getting the refund/ processing my tax given this?

I au pair in the afternoons (R7500 a month salary) and I also do contract work for 2 companies (R1500 and R2500) salary in order to pay for my fees.

How to arrange a payment plan with SARS.

  Written by Nicci   Posted 28 January 2016

I started my business a few years ago, and the accounting firm that I appointed hardly made contact. As I'm not an accountant / bookkeeper / figure orientated wizard, but rather work with tools, I have no idea what is expected. A year ago I approached another bookkeeper and he ended up taking over my books from the previous firm. A month later I had to supply docs for my personal tax submission. I then found out that I owe SARS in excess of R40K, for some issue not resolved by previous firm, and...

Would I get the refund originally calculated after verification assessment is complete?

  Written by Marc   Posted 26 January 2016

When I submitted my tax return, I received an ITA34 informing me that I am due a R3 000 tax refund from SARS. Then I received a letter from SARS asking me for supporting documents, for verification assessment, which I had then submitted. Now I receive further correspondence regarding the verification assessment saying that "no adgustment has been made to the assessment". Does this mean I still get my R3 000 tax refund? And if so, by when can I expect payment of this refund?
