So if I have to sublet my house do I pay any tax or whats the process?

And also let's say if I need to apply for a car finance, can I use the rental income as another source of income or only my salary can be used?

You need to declare ALL income you received on your tax return.

You can use this income as another source of income.

You would still need to declare it on your tax return.

Unless you're suggesting tax evasion?

I'd never suggestion defrauding our esteemed government - how else are they going to pay for all their luxuries?

trying to find a workaround on not getting taxed on the rental income, unless creating a dummy business and since the annual turnover will be less than R75 000 , i dont have to declare it but i wonder if opening a dummy business will cause conflicts with my employer

How would the dummy business derive its income from an asset it doesn't own?

SARS will see through that little trick in 2 seconds.
