Medical aid claim for claims submitted after year end

Hi. I submitted a medical aid claim after the tax year end for a procedure which was done in February 2015. Medical aid only paid a portion of the claim due to the nature of my medical aid plan. The amount not paid for by the medical aid is not reflecting on my medical aid tax certificate for 2015. I do have the original invoices. Can I add it on my tax return for this year or only next year?

Since the procedure was done in Feb 2015, you can add it to your tax return this year (2015). SARS should accept it as long as you have the supporting invoices and proof of payment.
