Concerned about source codes that appear on IRP5 but not prompted by TaxTim

Hi there

I had 3 IRP5s for the 2009 tax year. I have just completed your questionnaire but am concerned as I was not prompted to punch in some source codes that appear on two of these IRP5s. The outstanding codes are the following:

- 3695
- 3699
- 4103
- 4473
- 4474
- 4486
- 3808
- 3810
- 4001
- 4005
- 4472
- 4474
- 4486
- 4103

Many thanks in advance.

The question that asks for source codes starting with a 3 is "Please enter your income amounts, along with their source codes here. On your IRP5, these may be listed under a section called Income Received or Income Sources. Incomes have a source code that starts with a 3. Don't enter source code 3696, 3697 or 3698 yet - they get asked next."

The question that asks for source codes starting with a 4 is "On your IRP5 under Deductions / Contributions, do you have any amounts there? These deductions have source codes that typically start with a 4."

You can go back and edit your answers to these questions to put in the amounts above.
