SARS E-Filing 2020/21

Dear Diary,

It's day 12 now since submitting the documentation. Or is it 8? I don't know. Depends on whether SARS means 21 business days with their audit time or regular days including weekends. Nonetheless, the excitement has worn off. I know no longer refresh the Statement or Login infrequently just to check. The posts on MyBB have dried up. A win here and there; someone got their payout. Some sad stories too of the taxman doing in the vulnerable.

We wait in hope. The country my taxes go to build burns but, that's a story for another day. Today I just want my cut. I need my cut.

It's 21 business days
 
I filed my return on the 1st July and received a letter that i'm selected for verification.

My efiling status was correction file and today it has changed to assessment received, by my refund status still shows that my refund is on hold.

Does anyone know how this process works.

Have you uploaded supporting documents yet? Go to the SARS notifications and check the correspondence. One of the letters will stipulate what documents you need to submit. There is a link on that same page to upload the documents

Lol, you joined just to ask this question didn't you karabom1982? What letters are under "Number of Letters"? Do you have a Completion letter in there?
 
What date is being referred to when requesting a SOA? I was assuming a payment date but for the life of me I can't see one on the document.

Depends which period you are working in. If it is for the 2021 tax year then date will be from 01/03/2020 to 28/02/2021

Little confused. Hope someone can help. My assessment result (Statement of Account Balance) is -Rxxxx. From my understanding, if it is minus, it means I am due a refund. Yet my refund status is 'No refund due'? I filed my returns last week Monday and I have not received any payments. So how can I be no refund due?

Have you been selected for verification or audit ?

One reason I can think of is if refund is less than 100 rands, then I think it gets adjusted next time around.
