How do I know if SARS has completed assessing my return?



HI there

I have submitted my return and my eFiling status says assessment received. I have received my ITA34 and have drawn up my Statement of accounts on my profile. I have not been selected for an audit and the amount specified is in a negative balance which I know means that money is due to be paid for me.

Does SARS send extra confirmation that they will be paying this out and how long does it take to receive my tax return?

Hope you can help me as This is the first time using eFiling.
