SARS E-Filing 2020/21

Looks like TaxTim somehow screwed up my profile, I'm gonna have to call SARS to try get it fixed.
If I open my efiling I get this:
1625391555375.png

If I click on manage tax types I see this:
1625391606858.png

I've selected Remove Practitioner Access in the select option dropdown, waited 24 hours and then nothing changes.

I have no Returns or Returns History - profile is just empty.

Thanks TaxTim
 
Latest to submit tax return?

Need to get my proof of wfh.
 
Can anyone explain why I have the following reflected on my income return and it is greyed out when I have not received any income:
Did you receive any interest (local and foreign), distributions from a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT)/ Taxable local dividends, taxable foreign dividends and / or dividends deemed to be income in terms of s8E & s8EA (excluding amounts received as a beneficiary of a trust(s), or deemed to have accrued in terms of s7)?

I also noticed that the number of pages is 32 which includes income from farming etc. I have never been a farmer or earned an income from farming?
I am retired and simply receive a pension from my investments.
 
Sars is asking for purchase contracts on the 2 vehicles I had a claim on for travel.
The one has been sold and was purchased privately... I have like copies of when registration was put in my name etc. but no purchase agreement. Now what?
 
When was the deadline for companies to upload our tax info to SARS?

My income tax info has not been populated on efiling yet and I haven't received a copy of my IRP5 yet. I have sent 2 requests to HR already in the last week, and no response yet

All other info has been populated correctly, its the first time my income tax is not populated and is holding up the process.
Same here. Where do we get our IRP5 if HR does not respond?

No idea, but I'm going to email them everyday next week till I get a response.

Alternatively, I'll have to drive 150kms to go to the head office and wait there till I get it

I will do the emails as well. Pity we have to beg for it.

Sars wants to ascertain whether the cost price declared in the tax return is in fact the actual cost price therefore in the absence of the agreement i would:
1. Get an affidavit stating the date of acquisition, and the cost price and the sellers name if possible
2. Include a copy of the bank statement as proof of the transaction
3. Include the registration certificate

Thanks for this - I uploaded a picture of the registration when it was changed into my name.
Will contact SARS tomorrow asking if I can upload maybe a statement showing the withdrawal of the cash and an affidavit.

If the window on efiling is closed to upload you can email it to [email protected] using the case number on the letter you received as reference or attach the letter.
 
I filed today, and got asked for proof of work from home expenses. I rejected my auto assessment and did the return manually, which increased the refund due to me. SARS then asked for proof of my work from home claims, which I am putting together now. I don't expect any problems, as I have receipts/invoices for all of my claims.
 
Thank you.

Explains why GAP only pays out of pocket and not what your savings account paid.

After last year's medical chaos, I'm going to be more vigilant about claiming back for tax.
In theory, the gap payments should already be listed as unclaimed on your medical, as gap only pays differance between medical aid and actual but check.
 
Who claimed for WFH expenses and got audited?
Me. But it also took my return from like R16K due to me to like triple of that. I doubt they will win will here as my stuff is all verifiable. d

Same here. Where do we get our IRP5 if HR does not respond?
I believe employer reconciliation closed end of June {70% certain of this} (i.e. HR had until then to submit and ensure things are ready for now). They have a legal obligation to provide you the info. I would simply email them reminding them of their responsibility as failing which you will have to report them to SARS for non-compliance or hampering your ability to truthfully reflect your income statement.

HR can be massive po**** at times. Most times really but we pretend to like them.
