May I claim ADHD medication and part time university fees on my tax return?

Posted 20 September 2014

Good day Tim

I am not very clued up when it comes to tax affairs.

A brief background. I am employed and and fall into the higher tax brackets if that assists in any way.

My question is :

May I claim my Adhd medication on my tax return, it is approximately R 620.00 a month.

Secondly May I claim my part time university fees on my tax return. This is approximately R18 000.00 a year.

Your response will be greatly appreciated.

The part time fees may not be claimed unfortunately. The other medical expenses can be claimed, but will be subject to the formula used for Tax deductions for Out of Pocket expenses
