Tax season does not have to be stressful when you have experienced professionals on your side.

🚨 MY GOOD PEOPLE… LET’S TALK ABOUT THAT “10% OF YOUR REFUND” FEE.

🚩🚩🚩 If you're paying someone to complete or correct your tax return, SARS is very clear: your tax practitioner’s fee should be based on the nature, complexity and work involved — NOT a percentage of your refund.

In other words: ❌ “I’ll do your return for 10% of whatever SARS pays you.”

That is a contingency fee, and SARS specifically states that this is not an acceptable form of remuneration for completing or correcting tax returns.

✅ What CAN we charge?

A professional fee based on the complexity of your return, the work required and the services provided.

Your refund shouldn't determine our fee.

Because let's be honest…

If Taxpayer A gets a R5,000 refund and Taxpayer B gets a R50,000 refund, but their tax returns require exactly the same amount of work…

Why should Taxpayer B pay 10x more? 🤷‍♀️

Your refund is your money.

Our job is to make sure your return is completed correctly, your legitimate deductions are considered, and you comply with your tax obligations.
Not to take a slice of your refund.

Tax advice should be transparent. Your tax practitioner’s fees should be transparent too.

Waiting until the deadline often means:

• Increased pressure
