The Bi-annual August 2017 PAYE reconciliation period is from 15 September 2017 – 31 October 2017. – All employers must prepare and submit their declaration (EMP501) and employees’ IRP5’s to SARS reconciling the PAYE/SDL/UIF paid during the period 1 March 2017 to 31 August 2017.
Late submission of the EMP501 return AND submission of omitted information/incomplete IRP5 certificates will result in severe penalties being levied.
SARS Income Tax numbers for all employees (regardless of income level) is part of the mandatory information required by SARS – submission of the Bi-Annual August 2017 IRP5/IT3 certificate without the mandatory information will be seen as incomplete information and penalties will be levied by SARS (even if submitted before the deadline).
Due to the increased SARS queries and audits on PAYE and the highly regulated Tax Administration Act, we highly recommend that an automated payroll is not merely a luxury, but a critical part of the daily function of any business.
