Verification of Income Tax Declaration

  Written by Marc   Posted 16 July 2013

Hi Tim. Your website is great & the questions & answers very helpful indeed. I recently submitted my ITR via E-Filing, my IRP5 information appeared on my ITR (I didn't change anything).

  Written by Marc   Posted 16 July 2013

I did my eFiling as usual,then I got a ITA34 which said that they owe me money, then they requested that I give them the supporting documents, which I handed in at the SARS offices.

  Written by Marc   Posted 15 July 2013

I am paying roughly R1 400 on a medical aid for myself and a spouse.
The payments are made through the company, but the full amount is deducted from my salary per month, and the company does not contribute any portion. Does this mean that I am paying the medical aid myself, and can claim as such, or does this mean that I cannot claim these amounts for a tax return?

Which supporting documents to send to SARS when being audited?
