Hi Tim, I am unemployed and I am unsure about what to do with my tax return next year.

Posted 14 October 2012 under Tax Q&A

I also have an annuity that I still pay every month. What do I do next year with my return?

For the next year, you would go onto eFiling and where it asks if you were unemployed you click yes and a new drop down list will appear which will be simple to complete. You must submit a return though or else SARS could penalise you, but basically you won't be paying any tax as you have not earned income.
