Determine your SARS dispute days.
Before we calculate the applicable dispute deadline, enter the date of assessment so we can check the three-year cut-off in section 104(5)(b) of the Tax Administration Act.
Assessment
Dispute stage
Deadline
1 Date of Assessment
When was the assessment issued?
This first check helps identify whether section 104(5)(b) may affect your ability to initiate a dispute by objection.
Form placeholder
Three years can materially change the route available.
If more than three years have passed from the date of assessment, you may no longer be able to initiate the dispute through an objection.
If the dispute was already initiated and you are now in the appeal phase, the three-year cut-off does not mean that you should stop the calculation. In that situation, continue with the dispute-day process.
