Dunno if you've received a response from them yet, but you log in, click on the "menu drop-down" (left, next to the Easy Equities logo), select "report" (at the bottom of the drop-down), then "Tax certificates" in the middle - click the "down arrow" to the right of that section and it will reveal your available certificates.
Hope that helps!

TFSA - Net Return on Investment on IT3(s)
On your SARS return, there's section for Tax Free Investments, and I'm having trouble interpreting Easy Equities' IT3(s) - the tax certificate for TFSA. Do any of you perhaps know where I find/calculate the "Net Return on Investment - Profit (4239) and Loss (4240)?
I've lodged a ticket with them, but I'm finding their response time incredibly slow.

Tax statements there - soon to be replaced with new format with Tax codes
Both ITB3(b) and (c) are currently available in Investment accounts and ITB3(s) in TFSA accounts.
These statements are about to be replaced with a newer format containing SARS tax codes to make your e-filing even easier. Clients asked for these and we've worked really hard in the last few weeks to update them.
That 'replacement' of old format with new should take place later today.
There are unfortunately about 1,000 client accounts whose statements we haven't been able to reconcile and as a result there are no statements as yet. Our static data department are working on it daily and have committed to having those accounts reconciled by 31 July.

I managed to get mine.
2 days after I logged the ticket the certificate was on my account. Didn't receive any feedback on my ticket. I was just taking a chance to see if it was there.
Had to log another ticket because only my "trading" account's certificate was there. There was nothing for my TFSA.
This was also resolved 2 days later without any communication.
Hi all,
Looking to open an Easy Equities account so I can deposit a monthly R2750 for my tax free savings.
I am looking to diversify into mainly international equities, my last two years of tax free savings were simply tossed at the Ashburton Top 40 via FNB.
Any recommendations for ETF's or other option I can split my R2750 into monthly? Won't hold anyone accountable for financial advice.
Looking to build up my tax free portfolio over the next 15 years, so plainly long term growth, no intention of withdrawing the money.

Hi Justin. I was able to download an IT3(s) with some codes on it but not all. We're still missing 4239 and 4240 for the TFI section on the SARS return. For reference:
TFSA Net Return on Investment - Profit (4239)
TFSA Net Return on Investment - Loss (4240)
These are not indicated on the IT3(s) at all. Would you be able to advise?
TFSA Net Return on Investment - Profit (4239)
TFSA Net Return on Investment - Loss (4240)
These are not indicated on the IT3(s) at all. Would you be able to advise?
I came up with this split into ETFs for my monthly Tax Free Savings distribution:
20% - Sygnia Global Property
30% - Satrix MSCI Emerging Markets
50% - Sygnia S&P 500
Any comments welcome and appreciated.
My goal is just long term growth 15+ years. I do not plan on withdrawing the money any time soon. However this will probably be the only investment/savings I make each month for the next 4 years until I pay off my apartment loan. R10k per month goes towards my loan. After 4 years I will be investing the 10k elsewhere. For reference, I am in my late 20s, been working for 3 years now.
