Covid-19 crisis funding: Where to apply And what are the qualifying criteria?

President Cyril Ramaphosa announced proposals for additional COVID-19 tax relief, earlier this evening:

‘To assist a greater number of businesses, the previous turnover threshold for tax deferrals is being increased to R100 million a year, and the proportion of PAYE payment that can be deferred will be increased to 35 percent.
Businesses with a turnover of more than R100 million a year can apply directly to SARS on a case-by-case basis for deferrals of their tax payments.
No penalties for late payments will be applicable if they can show they have been materially negatively impacted in this period.
Taxpayers who donate to the Solidarity Fund will be able to claim up to an additional 10 percent as a deduction from their taxable income.’
