Verification process

Posted 22 August 2014

Hi TimAwesome forum here very informative.Well this is my saga, I submitted my return on the 1st July 14. On the 8th July 14 I got a letter saying that I've been selected for verification.I submitted supporting docs the same day.On the 4th August 14 I got a call from an auditor requesting further docs. I submitted the docs the same day. Today I got a letter of completion so I called Sars to confirm if all is okay. Well to my suprise I was now told that my refund was selected for review and it will take another 21 working days to resolve. The agent also said that I may get a call from the auditor who can request further docs. I asked her whats docs would that be and she said my Irp5. I am abit confused now as I submitted my Irp5 already on the 8th July 14.Not sure what this review is about now.
