How much tax do I pay as a consultant and how do I go about doing it?

  Written by Marc   Posted 31 May 2013

I am a salaried employee (R8000 per month) and I earn a commission as well. (Amount varies every month). I also earn a consultant fee (R2000 per month and this will increase to R7000 per month at the end of June). My payslip does not reflect the commissions earned. The consultant fee is received from a completely different entity. How must I go about paying tax on all these amounts and how much will I end up paying? (I am currently taxed on the R8000 per month only).
