I submitted my IT return on the 1 July 2015 and were asked to scan my documents. Which I did at Kimberly branch. I received a long SMS about an audit. How long does it take for SARS to refund me after scanning my documents?

SARS can take up to 21 working days on the initial verification. Thereafter you will receive a completion letter indicating the result and if any adjustment will be made.
