KIRONIA TAX AND ACCOUNTING SERVICES (PTY)LTD

2024 Personal Tax Help Page

We are making this site available as a help page for the 2024 personal tax filing season. It will have  all our personal tax forms for completion, pertinent information  and guides to various aspects of personal tax filing.

The South African tax legislation and its interpretation is complex. We do not intend this website to give comprehensive tax advice, but rather provide information as a introductory guide to some of the more common tax questions and problems we, and our clients, deal with. There are many sources of additional information online – please make use of these or contact us for more information.

Should something be unclear or if you want additional information, please email me at morne@kironia.co.za or call at 011 435-2435.

TAX SEASON 2024: 

NON-PROVISIONAL TAX PAYERS: 15 JULY 2024 TO 21 OCTOBER 2024

PROVISIONAL TAX PAYERS: 15 JULY 2024 TO 20 JANUARY 2025

AUTO-ASSESSMENTS: 1 JULY 2024 TO 21 OCTOBER 2024 (likely assessment issue date issue to end of allowable correction period)

SARS WILL impose penalties for late return submission ranging between R250 to R16,000 per month (based on an income sliding scale) from 22 October for non-providsional tax payers with returns not submitted.

SARS cracking the whip

Legislation promulgated in 2021 makes it a criminal offense to provide incorrect information on your tax return submission. This not only pertains to misstatement of income and expenses, but also providing incorrect personal details, such as telephone numbers and addresses.No distinction is made between intentional misstatements (fraud or tax evasion) and unintentional misstatements (misunderstandings or just absent mindedness). Clearly we do not have enough prisons to deal with everyone that will fall into this trap, but it behooves us to be pedantic in gathering tax submission information from you, as it behooves you to provide accurate and complete information to us.

SARS AUTO-ASSESSMENTS

Please read our auto-assessment document. If you want to make use of our services, you will be asked if you want to OPT-IN or OPT OUT of us sharing your eFiling auto-assessment results with you. We charge a fee for those that choose to opt-in.
