SARS & eFiling - What gives?!

[Vetplant]

Soooo thankful I got my returns in on Friday on the old website... lots off teething problems it seems.

[Ispeed_V]

Submitted returns on Friday and according to the statement of account, should get reimbursed tonight.

Eventually got my “3699 error” sorted but now have to wait up to 24 hours for the calculation to show before so decide to submit or not.

Does it take that long for the calculation or is it because you had an error?

All I did was refreshed the IRP5, Medical Aid and RA data, and used Chrome today instead of IE/Edge yesterday.

 

The calculation used to be instant, but when I clicked on it this time it said I need to wait 24 hours. It still shows Awaiting Result under the heading “Calculation Results”.

E-filing is a stuff up. The list of problems are endless. We've sent a list of all issues to SARS.

 

I suggest waiting a day or two before submitting anything.

Agreed... apparently I don’t even have a return for 2019 ????‍♂️

You can generate one once you've done the OTP step.

i did the calculation on thursday and it was instant so maybe it's just all the people trying to submit

[Vetplant]

Submitted mine on Friday, so hopefully my payment should reflect today or tomorrow.

SARS payback showed in my account this morning

I do not see any option to create tax form for 2019.  What am I missing?  Only years from 2014 - 2018 (completed returns).

Mine was done with Zero hickups, just watch out for pop-ups, you have to allow it for Sarsefiling.

for those in the know, when is the deadline for when an employer is legally obliged to issue an IRP5 to their employee's

 

year on year I need to argue with our company because they do not have the IRP5's ready for when the tax submission process is open, and the reply is that I must just wait till their accountants have it ready ... the one year I was told that if I want it sooner I must pay my own accounts company to generate the IRP 5 for me ... needless to say I flipped and told her she is legally obliged to provide me with the IRP5

I have replied in kind to their last email asking me to "wait"

My 2019 return wasn’t showing, and I remember having an option to select 2019 from a drop down menu.

 

I’ll try find out from people at work that might experience a similar thing and post back here how to do it.
