SARS receives lots of data, which it will analyse to identify discrepancies and cases for enquiries about taxpayers and businesses. Tax enquiries are varied, they can be relatively simple or be highly complex, looking at all your finances and tax affairs.
Our approach to a tax enquiry is to start by developing a robust plan of action and agree on a way forward with SARS. We will liaise directly with your other professional advisors and asset managers whenever necessary. We prepare any disclosure reports needed so that SARS understands the facts and amounts involved. We handle all meetings with SARS before negotiating a solution covering tax, interest, and penalties as appropriate. Our focus is on getting the final closure of all issues, giving you the final say, while avoiding disruption and minimising your direct contact with SARS. We believe that this approach to dealing with SARS delivers the best results for our clients.
