Monthly SARS Update with Prof Jackie Arendse - April 2026
Presenters : Prof. Jackie Arendse
Overview
The April 2026 update highlights a significant judicial trend: both SARS and taxpayers are being held strictly to their original "pleadings." The courts signal that neither side can "shift the goalposts" once a dispute matures, making the initial stages of an objection or assessment more critical than ever.
