Medical scheme tax credit amount



I'm completing my IRP6 (second part) as I am a provisonal tax payer. In the space provided for medical scheme fees tax credit (I believe it's R242 for this year) do I fill in R2904 (R242 times 12) for the full year I've been paying towards medical aid. Or do I only have the one credit of R242 for the entire year?

It is per month credit so you would multiply it by 12.
