I have started working in July 2011 and tax is deducted in my salary. Will I get my tax money back?

Posted 10 July 2013

As I was not supplied with the IRP5 and just got it this month. Will I get all my money back as this is the third year without claiming the money?

You will only get money back if you have other deductions such as medical aid, retirement annuity, donations to charities or income protection that your employer does not pay for. If you do then this will reduce your over all tax owed and therefore will result in a refund to you of some of the tax already paid.
