How Do I Report My Health Insurance On my Tax tax return?

Unfortunately, health insurance/ GAP cover is not claimable (i.e. deductible) for tax purposes.
Only contributions to a medical aid are claimable as well as qualifying medical expenses. Please read our blog on Medical expenses for further clarification.
