21 July 2025 is the official start of the 2025 Tax filing season – SARS is encouraging all taxpayers to use SARS e-filing channels to file their tax returns with amended deadline dates:
If you are uncertain whether you need to submit a tax return, if you need help with filing your return or if you have queries about what documents SARS will require to ensure fewer tax queries, please contact our Tax Department to assist you. Starting in July 2025, SARS will automatically assess a number of taxpayers, if you have been selected for auto-assessment, SARS will send you an SMS. You can either accept the assessment (if accepted, you do not have to submit a tax return at all) OR make changes to your tax return from within 40 business days from the date that your assessment was issued to you. Taxpayers would need to scrutinise their tax returns to ensure that the correct information is reflected, especially that certain tax deductions are not missed, as you could be paying too much tax. SARS would also not have certain third-party data, which may result in incorrect auto-assessments for the 2025 tax year. NB! It is important that the auto-assessment is reviewed before accepting it, as the onus is on you as the taxpayer to ensure that this assessment is 100% accurate. And you do not want to pay too much tax. Contact me directly for further assistance. Juanita Roman | Taxation Associate |
