I resigned from my job late last year. Upon resignation, I transferred my pension fund savings into a preservation fund with the same company that held my pension fund. My tax return shows the entire amount of my pension fund as income under source code 3920 - Lump Sum Benefit. Why is this declared as income when I have not received the money?

Refund gets reversed by your bank 3x and SARS then suddenly requestes for docs but not Audit?

  Written by Marc   Posted 14 July 2014

Hi TaxTim

I submitted my SARS return on 02/07/14. I requested a statement of account to see if I was selected for an audit and the answer was No.... even today when I request a new statement it says No. So what happened was, on the 3rd/4th and 5th of July 2014, FNB had technical problems, and they reversed all payments from any one that went to FNB accounts. With my luck - it was my SARS refund. So on Tuesday (the 7th of July) I received a message - request for supporting documents, ...

Retirement & Provident Withdrawal Tax Refund

  Written by Marc   Posted 10 July 2014

Good day, on the 25 January 2014 I changed employment and had a withdrawal from my previous employees Retirement and Provident funds of approximately R57200.00 each and I only got approx R42000 deposited in my bank on each. I was taxed on both payouts but does not seem like I am getting a refund on them. On my ITR12 I can see the one payout from Liberty (R57200.00 on source code 3920) but not the other and my issue is that my total rebate is only R 74.00. I really dont think this seems right?

Transfer from one retirement annuity fund to another - how to handle on efiling?

  Written by Marc   Posted 10 July 2014

During the 2013/2014 tax year I moved a retirement annuity from one fund to another. As part of this process the accumulated value in the "old" RA was paid over as a lump sum into the "new" RA.

As a result, the "old" fund issued me with an IT3a for the lump sum payout. This IT3a used code 3920 for the lump sum payout, with an additional code 4 indicating it is a tax exempt lump sum payment (there is also a tax directive number on the IT3a).

How do I handle this on eFiling when completing my income tax return?...
