Hi
I would like to know if anyone has any info regarding the changes that SARS are planning to introduce on 22 Feb.
We have heard, from various SARS employees and the media, that there will be only one registration number (this will cover VAT, IT, PAYE)... and that all taxes must be merged to one e-filing profile. (at the moment we have one profile for VAT & PAYE and one for IT)... and then some of our clients have their own profiles for VAT/PAYE etc.

Then yesterday when we went to SARS they said that on 22 Feb they are also introducing the "online" application system where one would apply for VAT registration & PAYE registration ect. online via e-filing. No more practitioner unit appointments.

Is there anyone that knows more about this?

Why can't SARS communicate their proposals to us before they go-ahead and change stuff overnight. Like with the debit pull chaos.
And the SARS employees must also be trained on the new systems... wonder when this will happen, as yesterday they said that they heard about the new stuff, and that it's rolling out on 22 Feb, but they don't know anything else...



Thanks.
