Do your Tax with TaxTim and WIN R10,000  More info   T&C's apply


I'm earning above the tax threshold and have not submitted tax returns.

Posted 22 November 2012

How do I go about avoiding penalties? Do I just submit for this year on e-filing or do I apply for the VDP to avoid penalties?

If you haven't received a penatly notice yet then submit all your returns before the deadline tomorrow and you should be safe. I wouldn't advise going through the VDP program as this usually deals with very serious tax matters and could be expensive and take a lot of time to apply for.
