Sally says: 3 February 2015 at 8:31 Sars is busy with 2014 audit. I have submitted all documents in November. No further documents have been requested. What is an assurance audit? Why does it take so long? I really appreciate your help. |

TaxTim says: 4 February 2015 at 8:11 Please read our blog post on why you may have a delayed refund from SARS Unfortunately SARS' time frames are not exact and in many instances take a considerable amount of time. You can call 0800 00 7277 and ask them to escalate the case once the 3 month period is up. |

TaxTim says: 5 February 2015 at 8:28 It is the next stage of their verification process, the first stage is just verifying that the details submitted against the documents used. An assurance audit is ensuring that what was submitted is "makes sense" for your personal tax affairs. |

TaxTim says: 8 February 2015 at 20:39 In some instances yes, it would depend on their requirements, they have the legal power to do so. |
