eFiling: Relocated overseas, no South African bank account and not returning to South Africa



I moved to Australia from South Africa in June 2014. I closed my bank accounts as I won't be returning to South Africa. I was studying full time during the 2014 financial year so my tax return is NIL.

My question is how do I fill in the bank account declaration section (on eFiling) since I no longer have a South African bank account? Do I update my details to "I don't have a local bank account" or do I keep my previous banking details on the form as I closed my bank account after the 2014 year end?

Thanking you for your assistance! :)

Update your details and SARS will send you notification with how to send them the new details and receive a refund if due.
