Can I claim tax on Co vehicle and fuel where I do not have a travel allowance?

  Written by Marc   Posted 23 June 2015

Hi TaxTim, I work as a vehicle sales executive, which means I have a company vehicle which I use for both business and personal use. I did keep a log book. On my payslip it is reflected under "taxable perks". "I also paid Vat on Co car" which is showed on my payslip under deductions. I also had a fuel allowance but that is not reflected on my payslip because the company I worked for owns a fuel station and we had "fuel tags".

Loan account with employer - how does the tax work?

  Written by Marc   Posted 23 June 2015

I have a loan with my employer, every month I pay them what I can afford so it differs from month to month, example I earned R20000. 00 this month I allowed them to take a deduction of R7000. 00, therefore they paid me R13000. 00 yet they taxed me on the R20 000. 00.
