About this episode
It is tax filing season and while people look forward to tax season because they can get a rebate, for many of us it can feel a bit overwhelming. 

In this podcast Maya speaks to tax expert Reinert van Rensburg, Tax Legal Specialist at Leap Group, about everything you need to know about your 2022 Tax return. He discusses key changes to auto-assessments and why people who have been selected for auto-assessment have a much shorter deadline.  He also explains why everyone should file a tax return and what makes an individual a provisional taxpayer. He also addresses the taxation of SA residents earning an income abroad.
