Taxpayers often find it difficult to understand what the requirements and practical considerations were around tax debt management.

Overview

Taxpayers often found it difficult to understand what the requirements and practical considerations were around tax debt management. There also seemed to be some confusion around which remedies were available for a disputed as opposed to an undisputed tax liability.

During this event, Adv Christel van Wyk defined the distinction between a Suspension of Payment and a Compromise, using practical examples and providing guidance on relevant case law. It was important for taxpayers and tax practitioners to use the correct procedure and to keep within the correct time frames to avoid running into trouble with SARS.

In this 2-hour webinar, Adv van Wyk provided useful insight and guidance on tax debt management options, more specifically a request for suspension of payment and a request for compromise.
