📑 The 2026 Individual Tax Filing Season is officially underway.

Taxpayers should take note of the key filing periods announced by SARS:

➡️ Auto Assessments: 1 July to 12 July 2026
➡️ Non-provisional taxpayers: 13 July to 23 October 2026
➡️ Provisional taxpayers: 13 July 2026 to 22 January 2027
➡️ Trusts: 13 July 2026 to 22 January 2027

As SARS continues to expand the use of third-party data and automated assessments, accuracy and proper review of submitted information have become increasingly important.

Before accepting an assessment or submitting a return, taxpayers should ensure:

➡️ Income disclosures are complete and accurate
➡️ Medical aid and investment information has been correctly reflected
➡️ Supporting documentation is available if required
➡️ Potential tax risks have been identified and addressed

At MMS Group, we assist individuals with accurate tax return preparation, review of SARS assessments, and professional guidance throughout the filing process. 🤝
