Statement by SARS Commissioner on launch of Filing Season 2021

1 July 2021 – The SARS Commissioner, Edward Kieswetter, launched the Filing Season 2021 and highlighted the changes, enhancements and the importance of making use of the digital and virtual channels. It’s the first ever launch of a completely virtual Tax Filing season. There are no physical branches open for in person public engagement. For at least the next 6 weeks, as we find ourselves in the cauldron of the third wave, all engagements with taxpayers will be through our on line digital offerings. See his full statement is here.
