SARS code 3702 not being taxed

Good day. I have codes 3701 and 3702 on my IRP5. I claim more then the SARS rate due to the fact that our rate includes fuel, maintenance, capital, insurance and depreciation.

I am earning a local profit from trading Bitcoin in various exchanges throughout the world. I have lodged this under: Other Receipts Accruals - Royalties - Amount Profit - 49224

How are personal assets to be valued? Personal assets given or donated to you?
Posted 25 November 2015
Am I correct in understanding that the valuation of personal assets is at cost price? What about personal assets that you have received as personal gifts/donations over say 10 yrs which in each year was under the annual exclusion rate. These assets have value yet cost is zero as they were given freely & gratis. How will/would SARs see this in an event of an Audit and a Home inspection?

Lump Sum Retirement Fund deposit no longer accepted under SARS code 4006 in reassessment
Posted 25 November 2015
Hi. My 2013 tax return was reviewed this tax year and adjustments made by SARS to my Retirement Annuity fund which has now left me owing SARS a large sum of money where the original assessment actually gave me money back. If I compare the original ITA34 to the new one I can see that the previous SARS code 4006 which had an amount counted as part of my deductions now in the new ITA34 reflects as R0.
A bit of background to this is that I changed employees and my new employer did not offer a pension fund so I instead redirected these funds to my retirement fund...

Medical aid supporting docs
Posted 25 November 2015
Hi. I have claimed for medical aid contributions and excess medical expenses out of pocket. SARS is auditing me, do I have to submit the actual slips for the out of pocket expenses (i. E. Every consult invoice and proof of payment)? Or is the summary from the medical aid (which shows claims and what was not covered - it has both full claim amount and out of pocket expense numbers reflected) sufficient?
Medical tax credit change upon SARS review, can you help?
Posted 25 November 2015
I calculated that since my wife and kids were on separate medical scheme and that I was contributing towards this I would be entitled to a refund, which appeared on SARS eFiling as such. However SARS subsequently requested my tax documentation and reversed the same credit that was in my favor to me now owing them?
Can you help with this?
