Which is the best way to maximise your return using the travel allowance?

  Written by Marc   Posted 11 March 2014

There are two ways to calculate travel allowance that is deductible. One is where you keep actual expenses and the other is where there is a table of fixed costs, maintenance etc depending on the value of the car. Which can maximise your refund?

I freelance now and again but have a very low monthly income. Do I need to declare & register?

  Written by Marc   Posted 7 March 2014

I love your business model, very innovative.

I have a full time job and don't charge much for creating websites and there is the recurring income of web hosting that I charge clients monthly. I probably create a site once a month for about R2000 and hosting comes to a total of R400 a month (for all the sites I host). So additional monthly income is max around R2400 and that is not every month....

Scared housewife - I may owe tax???

  Written by Marc   Posted 4 March 2014

I have been a housewife for a very long time. I am now 63 years old. We are married outside community of property. I had a business for a short period, many years back, which failed (I have no business sense it seems) and since then my husband was giving me money every month.

I got about 500k out from that. I have the ...

Started at new company this year (Online company based in Norway) what tax do I pay?

  Written by Marc   Posted 27 February 2014

Up until December 2013 I worked at Incredible Connection. I earned a basic and commission. They always used the PAY-E (Pay as you earn) to pay my tax.

At my new Company, an online company based in Norway, I get paid a salary and commission together in 1 payment. I submit my commission table at the end of the month and I am paid around the 5th-7th of the following month.
My question is:
