Im having problems with claimig my km im a Rep and travelled about 60 000km

Posted 17 September 2012

I seem to be having a problem with claiming mu Km this year as last year I only travelled about 30 000km and apposed to this year I travelled 60 000 and the amount that I seem to be able to get back is less than half of last year?

The change could be due to a number of reasons:

1. The travel allowance amount has changed;
2. Business km's traveled decreased;
3. A different car was used which could result in the cost per km being less;
4. You are also limited to the number of actual km's you may claim for business travel.

If you would like to send me the tax calculation that SARS has done or the ITA34 to tim@taxtim.com I can have a look.
