FAQ: What happens if my employer sends SARS the wrong information e.g. information on an IRP5/IT3(a)?

You are still responsible for the information on your income tax return which you sign to declare that it is true and correct.
This means that you need to verify all the information on your return (including the information which SARS populates on your behalf) to ensure that it is correct before you sign and submit it to SARS. If the information is incorrect, you will need to ask your employer to correct it.
