Correcting your surname on SARS registered details?

Posted 27 August 2014

My ITR12 has been filed. My surname is spelt incorrectly. Two letters are swapped around. How can I go about correcting this?

Click on "maintain registered details" under the USER tab on eFiling.

And can I still do this if somebody else submitted my tax on their profile? I have not yet registered on eFiling. Must I first register on eFiling, with the incorrect spelling, and then go to the user tab and click on maintain registered details?

Wait until next year and then correct your details.
