This drive must surely be based on the past years’ information and/or experiences because they really are mentioning it more than just for information purposes.

If you haven’t downloaded and installed the latest version of e@syFile Employer yet, please do so at http://downloads.sarsefiling.co.za/easyfilehome/easyfile.html.

The instruction manuals (quite comprehensive but also rather confusing at times) can also be found on this same page…

If you need assistance with submissions or the PAYE reconciliation process, please contact Psyber Consulting.

Please remember that all car allowances and company cars HAVE TO BE accompanied with a detailed log book as from 1 March 2011 and employees wanting to get car allowances have to be separately and individually declared as such with a reason for wanting the allowance.

I’ll keep everyone posted as to changes to the above date, as well as additional dates.
