How to get over the tax season with little stress
Johan Swart - Tax manager at Legal &
Tax joined us at 13:10PM. He gave us tips for a painless tax season. The tax season is with us again, with filing for the 2012 tax year set
to begin on the 1st of July and end on the 30th of
November. This tax year covers March 1st 2011 to February 29th 2012 . Johan gave
us few tips to help you get through tax filing time with as little
stress and heartache as possible. He says filing an income tax can be a
surprising amount of work. It’s best to get an early start so that you can
submit your return before the rush starts. If you are due a refund, the sooner
you file, the sooner you’ll get your money. And if you have underestimated your
tax contribution, you may be able to save substantially on penalties and
interest payable if you submit early. Remember don’t wait until the absolute
deadline to file since SARS offices can be very busy at this time and the
eFiling service has been known to fold under deadline demand. For more
information you can contact your nearest SARS office or visit www.sars.gov.za and for more information on Legal & Tax, visit www.legalandtax.co.za or call 0860 587 587 or email info@legalandtax.co.za. Follow them on Twitter @LegalandTax
