Medical Scheme Fees Tax Credit

  Written by Marc   Posted 4 August 2015

Good day,

I just want to make sure about the Medical Scheme Fees Tax Credit, source code 4116. My husband joined my medical scheme from July 2014, thus every month I pay for myself plus one dependent.

Correction on submission to SARS on individual return

  Written by Evan   Posted 4 August 2015

My Fiance received a travel allowance last year, due to seeing patients at home, she submitted her tax return before putting in her car value along with her mileage that she needs to claim, and hence didn't get any rebate from SARS.

Delays and confusion

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 August 2015

I submitted 1 July, immediately asked for docs, sent them through, then on 12 July asked for more docs, sent them through and since then no communication from SARS. Received an SOA indicating the refund amount a transaction reference and the date being 1 August. That's today but no completion letter. Have phoned several times and all they say is it's still in progress. No new notes or requirements. What is the meaning of all this?

Request for correction on VAT return

  Written by Marc   Posted 3 August 2015

I have discovered an error on a past VAT return (input tax amount was overstated) and did a "Request for Correction" on efiling. I changed the relevant amounts, resubmitted, and clicked "Pay Now" to pay the outstanding balance. However, the amount that came up was the full revised VAT payable amount, instead the full amount minus the amount originally paid. I then manually calculated the additional amount and paid only that, but am concerned that it seems like a discrepancy, even...
