Audit income tax but unemployed

  Written by Evan   Posted 9 July 2015

I used to be employed, but from 02/2014 to now I am not. I submitted a nil tax return and have now been selected for audit. They are asking for documents.

What can I send them when I said I was unemployed and I did not claim anything. Do they go into my bank account without me knowing or should I email them bank statements? There are deposits in my bank but that is just transfers from my various accounts. No income. Please help. Thank you for the great site.

Calculations of refund after submitting correction

  Written by Evan   Posted 9 July 2015

I completed my SARS tax return. My IT34 said I was being paid an amount back. I then realised I had made a R40 error on my tax return for my laptop depreciation. So I amended on my tax return and re-submitted. My calculation then said I was receiving about R4 less than before. Once submitted I received an IT34 stating I had to pay SARS R4. Which is the correct IT34 now? I can't possibly lose all the money I was getting back for changing an amount by R40? I was also requested to submit the laptop...

Why can't I get R21,000 initially?

  Written by Evan   Posted 8 July 2015

Hi Tim, thanks for a wonderfully informative site.
On SARS eFilings my tax returns were different from that of what I have on my IRP5 mailed to me by my work, so I corrected it. Which came back as me owing R16000 to SARS so I disputed and loaded the original on, now it shows I'm entitled to a refund after R21000-16000.

I submitted documents as requested and I'm also for audit. My question is will they pick up that I made an error initially and not refund me for the entire amount...

Is professional registration and education fees tax deductable?

  Written by Evan   Posted 8 July 2015

I have just filed a tax return through you but could not find a place for deducting professional fees. This includes having to pay and annual registration fee as Psychologist as well as having to attend professional education sessions to maintain my registration. The combined amount comes to about R2100. Is this not deductible? My company, City of Cape Town does not pay for this as they see it as part of my Total Cost to Company and I have to pay it myself.

SARS refund payment period

  Written by Evan   Posted 8 July 2015

Good day,

I have submitted my tax return and SARS owes me a refund. About 4 days has passed so I contacted SARS and asked them what the reason is why my refund is being held back, they told me it is because I have not submitted my 2012 tax return, so I did. After I submitted my return for 2012 as well, I contacted them again and inquired if there is anything else that they need from me in order for me to receive my refund and they said no that everything is in order and that there is ...

Hi. My SARS status has been "Please note that your return cannot be processed as SARS is currently reviewing your assessment. The return will be reviewed as part of this process. SARS will advise you on the outcome in due course." for a week now and no changes to date.

When will this change or when will SARS at least change the status or look at my return?

Unsure about source codes 3697 and 3698

If I have the below amounts on my IRP 5:

75,000. 00 - 3601
90,610. 00 - 3616

Would it fall under the following codes on my IRP 5 if the company does not deduct any retirement benefits bearing in mind that I was first a contractor from Mar - Aug.

75,000. 00 - 3697
90,610. 00 - 3698

Does these codes get taxed differently?

Hi,

The 4005 code on the IRP5 is different from the IT3(b) from the medical aid. Should I have any amount in 4040?

3810 = R 20,506
4474 = R 20,506
4020 = R 7,486
