SARS eFiling 2023/2024

My Tax lady is saying SARS is withholding my funds until I submit my 2017 TAX, why TF are they only asking me now? They could have brought this up a few years ago.

I am also in the same boat. I do not have that info anymore. I submitted an objection though.
 
Anyone know how to load code 4253 - capital gains loss on the return? That Returns page is a pain
I found it confusing at first as well. It tricked me last year too.

In capital gains/loss >> foreign gain/loss, you select code 6535 (just make sure the code is right for your case). You populate the proceeds and base costs section and the 4253 section should auto populate.
 
Just got a mail to verify banking details. Hopeful that payment will be soon

Same. I updated my banking details in Jan 2024 at SARS when changing bank accounts. The account details on the system is correct.

1st time i see this second paragraph below.

Tried to upload the additional supporting docs now, unable to, locked out on supplying to rest of the documents. So now I got to wait for them to tell me to do it.
 
Have been trying to resolve a Customs query for 5 months
For forex payments over R50k, an Advance Payment Notification is required for the bank
To get this, my Importers Code must be merged with my tax details
Since the importers code was issued in 2009, long before Customs matters were added to the e-Filing platform, this is proving impossible for SARS to implement
Their solution is to issue a new Customs Import Code
But, when I apply for an APL, I am told that I cannot have 2 Customs Codes
For some reason, the older Customs Code cannot be cancelled
The 20 or so people I have spoken to at SARS cannot resolve it

And in the meantime, my order from Europe has lapsed

Welcome to SARS. The amount of crap we have from them on our imports is next level. All most all of our containers gets stopped (multiple per month) where we then have to pay inspection fees and storage fees, not to mention the lost sales due to now receiving our stock 2 - 4 weeks later, on top of the ridiculous delays caused by Transnets incompetence. 45 day transit times now sitting at 90 - 120 days.

Government be like:

Hi people it seems SARS is licking the bowl now, going after people for very old returns from 2007. Wow
Jesus how do they figure that out especially since back then even, if you didn't do it you got into schitt.

They're using AI now? What if the AI gets it wrong? People's lives ruined. Oh wait... ANC doesn't care!
 
I am waiting for clarification but this may be a transfer of funds from Sanlam to Old Mutual, my employer used to have our Group pension/provident fund with Sanlam but switched to Old Mutual a few years back, not sure why there was a transfer last year though.

And still waiting for feedback from Sanlam, checked my Old Mutual fund statements and can see a very similar amount deposited in but i have no recollection of any notice from Sanlam or Old Mutual about it and can't find anything either.
 
Anyone using tax tim and had their submission done? I finished Sunday afternoon and they still havent submitted just telling me its reviewing
