Where do I declare a secondary source of commission income in the ITR12 if the primary is on IRP5?



I am an independent contractor operating out of a home office, and earned commission during the year from two sources, however only one of them deducted PAYE. That IRP5 is reflected on eFiling, however there is no section on the ITR12 to declare the second source of commission income. If I select the trade section of the ITR12 then I get a whole income statement to complete; if I do this must I include the IRP5 income as well? Also must I include all my expenses here or rather in the standard deductions section as I did last year? Your assistance appreciated.

So only one IRP5 exists?

Yes, just the one

You would not include the other IRP5 - that will just be from the non IRP5 income. You can split the between this income and it's deductions and then complete the other deductions for the IRP5 income or combine them and put them in either.
