Tax Refund waiting period

How can I confirm when SARS has paid my tax refund and if there is anything that I need to do. I cannot see any relevant data on my SARS Efilling account and I am not flagged for audit but it has been 6 working days now. Please advise?

Did you receive your payout from SARS?

No I did not.

According to what we can see there should be no hold up on you receiving your refund. Could we ask you to phone SARS and find out what they still require, we have noticed this particular year that SARS is requesting old tax returns, however yours all seems to have been submitted.

I have spoken to SARS and they want me to submit my 2011 and 2012 tax returns.

How can we go about doing this?
