Where to declare foreign income on ITR12

Posted 28 February 2015

I am in the US on a work visa. I have not been back to US in over 2 years. I have South African rental income for the 2014 tax year but no salary income. Where do I declare my foreign income on my ITR12? Is it under SARS code 4222 or Exempt Amount i. T. O. S10(1)(o), or both?

Rental income is declarable and tax payable regardless of where you are in the world. You would declare it under the "local business income" section of the return.
