Interest - file an objection or request a correction

I have been requested to submit additional documents. Turns out that I hadn't included the interest earned (I wasn't aware that I had to do this)
After getting the certificates and checking I noticed there is a R200 difference on the amounts their assessment had and the total on the certificate. When I called SARS and spoke to the consultant she said I had to fill out an objection and submit with the documents. I started with that but noticed that the request a correction button is active. Do I submit an objection or request a correction and resubmit my tax return with the interest amount included?

If that button is active, then you can "request a correction" and fill in the correct details rather than go the Objection route which can be a very drawn out process.
