That's because today is only the 10th

Ahhhh..... Sorry I missed a day somewhere. Was a rough weekend

Glad the rest are coming through

this still REEKS of a system issue, and not "extra validation" , but , what if next year they pick up a discrepancy? can you tell them to go f@#$%$# off , because last year, they took longer to pay with these extra validations?

Hahahahahahahaha. No, you will only piss them off. That, and they have the authority to take the money out of your bank account. It would have been nice if you could yave done that.

What's the Electronic Refund date? Mine's also showing 0 now, but ER is only tomorrow (see pic above).

 

[Slootvreter]

Looks like mine is also set for the 11th. Tomorrow.

I requested a Statement of Account now and it is blank. Return was filed on 01/07 and the refund due was reflected as R3.5K.

The Notice of Assessment date 01/07 has the correct refund amount and I notice now that the refund date is listed as 2017/08/01. Does this mean I must wait till next month now??

My condolences. And yes, the Electronic Refund date is the date they are paying you.

Since I've seen quite a few saying their refund date is in August only, I assume they're short of money and are waiting for the July PAYE to come in first. Not a good sign.

Try using Internet Explorer instead of Chrome.

Less indignant would be just disabling the default PDF viewer in Chrome, so that you can save it and view in Adobe Acrobat.

Where do you get the statement of account ?

 

[Speedster]

Where do you get the statement of account ?

Log in to e-filing, if there is a "Statement of account" section on your default screen you can simply request the statement of account there. Alternatively you'll need to click on "SARS Correspondence" on the left hand menu, then "request historic IT notices" and you should be able to request a statement of account there.

Here you go

why wait all the weekend then select tomorrow's date for refund? Can't it be done immediately? Had to be admitted to hospital due to anxiety caused by these delays!!!

Maybe you should learn to be calmer about these things...

Click on this button, then select "Request statement of account".

I don't see a refund date. The assessment date is 1 August.

My colleague says he hasn't had a tax return paid out to him for years now, although he does submit it yearly.

He's been to SARS every year, and they tell him that it has been sorted, and each time they give him a timeframe of 7 to 21 working days before it will be fully sorted, yet it just never happens.

Understandably he's fed up now with taking a day off work every time to wait in SARS' queues with no results despite their promises. They just say "it's a glitch on your account". Surely this isn't fair on him.

What steps are there to escalate something like this? They probably owe him over 50k now in total.

This is the only error he gets, nothing more descriptive unfortunately:

It's on your Statement of Account - looks like this:

Same boat as Sinbad, says assessed 1 Aug.
