My wife & I left RSA in 2011 & living in Namibia (we're awaiting permanent residence approval).
I receive a pension from Glacier (Sanlam) & they deduct PAYE. We also earn interest from ABSA in RSA & from Bank Windhoek in Namibia & from my son in Namibia. Do I have to submit tax returns in SA?
Why did we only get R500 back from SARS?

Written by Marc
Posted 24 July 2013
My hubby requested that his Co deduct R500 pm extra since August 2012. Total of R500 x 7 = R3500
IRP 5 reads R 173 579 code 3601
R 105 831 code 3605 (This is actually his commission)
PAYE R 49 183.30 code 4102
However we are only getting back R500.30. Why not the R3500?

How does the rental tax on a first property, paid in cash, work?

Written by Marc
Posted 23 July 2013
I currently live with my parents, on their property. I am looking at purchasing an apartment for R650 000 and renting it out. I have been given the option of paying for this in cash and then paying my family back at their low bond rate of 6.5% (prime -2%).
The property will be rented out for R5500. The expenses on the property (rates and levys) are R1800. So the rental income would be R3700pm. This R3700 as well as another R4300 will be paid monthly to my parents (total R8000pm).
