    SARS refusing to complete 2018 and older Verifications/Audits

    Good morning everyone,

    I recently assisted a client to get their taxes up to date.

    SARS decided that they wanted to do a verification on a few of the assessments, even though the client's profile was relatively straight forward which was no problem at all from my side.

    I submitted the documents on 01/10/2019 already, but SARS is refusing to complete these verifications "as they are not priority".

    Is anyone else also experiencing this, and any suggested remedies perhaps?

    Thanks All

    Hi Rudolf,

    Raise escalation then

    Raise a complaint a https://www.sars.gov.za/Contact/How-...complaint.aspx

    All this can only happen within the time frames

    Please keep record of your case reference numbers as SARS cannot merely say this is not a priority, they have a service charter they must abide by, then you raise a complaint, we have had issues with with lodging notices of objection where SARS levies large additional sums on incorrect tax returns,

    Kind regards
    Francois

    Have a look at SARS’s service charter: they have no turnaround for years older than 2019.

    I have quits a few cases like this, one of them were filed in July already. I supplies them with supporting documentation on the very same day, but they keep referring to their service charter.

    I doubt a complaint will make a difference if they are within the service charter’s rules.. but it’s worth a try.
