Determining tax residency

Posted 24 November 2015

In determining whether one is a tax resident, you use two criteria: one is born in SA, the other if one resides in SA or has formally emigrated. I am in doubt - I am born in SA, moved to Europe 20 years ago, renounced SA citizenship and now have just moved back (on a foreign passport).

What is the definition of 'formally emigrated' and how to determine my tax status?

Hi Tim, I'm trying to wrap up my tax return but your system has a check on branch code length and is not allowing me to enter the one that is on file at SARS - 51001 which is an ITB number and which I use all the time.

Learnership tax return

Posted 24 November 2015

SARS says that I have an outstanding tax return for 2010, I was on a learnership through BankSETA which did not contribute for PAYE and UIF, the stipend was R2500 a month. I see no historical tax return on SARS eFiling for that year but SARS consultants are adamant that I do the tax return. I received a UI-19 document from BankSETA stating it was a learnership and there was no UIF and PAYE. Should I take this document to SARS and will I need any other supporting documents?

Medical aid supporting documents

Posted 22 November 2015

SARS requested supporting documentation with reference to my medical expenses. Are you required to have the actual claims and payment receipts for medical expenses that were already covered by your scheme and appears on your tax certificate already (claims not recovered from the scheme)?
