Filing a tax return means that you can include all of your deductions, and increase your chances of paying less tax and maximize your chance of a refund.
If you receive an SMS informing you that you have been selected for auto-assessment, you can reject this on e-filing and not accept SARS auto assesment.
It may be inaccurate and accepting it, could result in you paying more tax than necessary.
You may miss out on claiming certain deductions, which won’t appear on your auto-assessment e.g. wear and tear, home office, medical expenses, donations and travel expenses etc.
