Open blocked account and merge 2 together

  Written by Marc   Posted 4 January 2016

Why does SARS close a new registered account after a few days?
Is it because we took to long to submit documents or is that normal. Why does it always says that your detail entered is incorrect. How can I merge the 2 accounts together which I have registered. I did not submit for 5 years and paying penalties but this must stop now. I need to submit today. Help

Provisional Tax vs Personal Tax?

  Written by Marc   Posted 4 January 2016

I've recently started working for myself. I've registered a business (which will start trading in 2016) but have been working through my own bank account (for the last 6 months) on the side (~ R6000/m) while getting preparations complete. I registered myself as a provisional tax payer, and I want to know if I can de-register myself for personal tax? Do I just submit a blank personal tax sheet since I filled in a provisional one for myself?

I am a small employer of 5 people, all earning about R3000-00 pm. I have been told that all of my staff members need to submit to me their tax reference number.

I have let my staff call SARS from my office on numerous ocasions to enquire without success. As I believe that there is a deadline for this looming immin...

Can I still query my statement of assessment after the tax returns deadline?

  Written by Marc   Posted 10 December 2015

I completed my first tax return via SARS eFiling early November (I have only been working for two years). After the SARS eFiling deadline, I checked to see my statement of assessment, and found it be by -20 cents. I am not sure if I filed correctly, but I was expecting a larger tax return. Is it too late for me to re-submit or correct my tax return, even though I initially completed it before the tax deadline?

Delay of refund due to audit and outstanding tax returns from 2005/2006

  Written by Marc   Posted 9 December 2015

I have enjoyed many years of good refunds from SARS. ( round about R30 000. 00 per tax year) This year I had an audit and they then issued a letter of completion but flagged my account for an outstanding tax return for 2005 and 2006. With great difficulty I managed to get a copy of 2005 IRP5 but could only get proof of salary for 2006. These years of income were very small and simple as there was only a small car allowance to factor in. I have subsequently been selected for audit again on these small tax returns. My questions are :...

How do I submit a late IRP5 for a previous tax year on SARS eFiling?

  Written by Marc   Posted 4 December 2015

I have submitted my tax return for this year but have been told they won't pay out until I submit my outstanding tax returns from last year (fair enough).
