eFiling Question - Medical Deductions

[rfnel]

Hello Riaan

You should complete the medical section and for each month you will put in 01.

On your IRP5 certificate:

code 4005 will correspond to that stated on your medical aid certificate.
Code 4474 is the amount the the employer contributed.
code 3810 is the fringe benefit

On your return you will state 0 next to 4040.

For example if you contribute 1000 and work 1000 the codes will reflect the following amounts on your irp5:
4005 = 12,000
4475 = 6,000
3810 = 6,000

Thank you Geraldene! The whole thing makes much more sense now.

Edit: For future reference, anyone with a similar query can find a detailed description of the different codes here.
