Jessica says: 25 August 2015 at 19:59 HI, if I stopped working in May last year and got a pension payout, can I claim back the tax paid on it based on my income over the year? |

TaxTim says: 26 August 2015 at 12:12 No, unfortunately you cannot claim back the tax paid on the pension payout. SARS would have issued a tax directive and you would have been taxed accordingly. However, you should complete a tax return for 2015 in order to see if you have overpaid tax on your salary, since you only worked for 2-3 months of the tax year and tax would have been calculated based on the full year.
