Homeloan interest payments or the whole repayment

Posted 8 February 2015

SARS have asked me to take a look at my 2014 return and to correct any "errors" that I find. I receive property rental income. I have a bond on that property. Should I list the interest portion of my bond repayments under "interest" and am I able to claim the balance of the repayments under other? I seem to have entered those figures incorrectly, which may be what is bothering SARS.

You are only allowed to claim the interest, not the rest of the capital repayment of the bond as this is just a repayment of the loan.
