Employers carry substantial responsibilities under the Income Tax Act, most significant of which are the obligations to determine and withhold the correct amount of employees’ tax and pay that over to SARS by due date. There are also extensive reporting obligations on employers. Failure to meet these responsibilities accurately and timeously results in costly penalties and interest and tie spent resolving queries from SARS. The webinar provides a useful overview of the responsibilities of employers, tax amendments in 2017 that affect payrolls and PAYE and the areas of risk currently under the spotlight that must be meticulously managed to minimise exposure to cost and litigation.
Participants will know the employers’ obligations under the Income Tax Act; understand the 2017 tax amendments that affect payrolls; and understand the areas of specific risk and how they should be managed.
The webinar will cover the following:
• Employers’ responsibilities under the Income Tax Act
• Recent Tax amendments
• Tax certificate changes
• SARS Rulings
• Payroll risk areas
• Penalties: what penalties are charged and how to deal with them
Tax advisors, taxpayers, accountants, trustees, business owners and managers, bookkeepers and anyone else who deals with SARS and/or payroll matters
