It will not appear on eFiling. Did they give you your IRP5 already?

Yes they did. So should I not submit then, until they have submitted??

What you can do is submit your return, but you will have to copy across all the information from the IRP5 that you have as the one on eFiling will be blank. SARS will then audit you and you can submit a scan of your physical IRP5 as proof. It would be best to wait though (or ask your employer why they haven't uploaded it) because this will avoid an audit and you having to complete all the details manually.
