Is it possible to pay 25% TAX on a R8 500 salary when you are not employed on a permanent basis as yet?

Yes, if you are a casual / temporary worker then SARS does require 25% tax to be withheld unfortunately. However, if you end up paying too much tax for the year then you can claim a tax refund when completing your tax return.

Register for TaxTim and let us assist you to complete and submit your tax return to SARS.
