How to Get a SARS Refund is for people who derive their income from salaried employment and wish to utilise the tax laws in South Africa to maximise their refund from the South African Revenue Service (SARS) upon filing their annual tax return. The new edition contains updated examples with the latest tax rates to illustrate the amount of tax that the reader will pay on their salary from 1 March 2021.
It also provides updates on changes to tax legislation relevant to salaried individuals, so that readers can stay up to date with what has changed and understand how this affects their ability to reduce their tax liability and increase their chances of getting a refund from SARS. The book helps readers to navigate their way through the annual income return (ITR12) for individuals as they complete the return via eFiling.
Topics include the basics of understanding individual tax, deductions from taxable income, medical tax credits and individual tax. It also deals with the types of taxes a salaried taxpayer may become liable for, including dividends tax, tax on interest earned, capital gains tax and provisional tax. How to Get a SARS Refund is a simple, easy-to-understand guide on how to get the most bang for your buck from the taxman.
