I just wanted to find out; I had one or two medical expenses that I needed to pay in the previous financial year, but I do not have a medical-aid... Would I be able to claim these expenses on my tax return?

Yes, you would claim these under the medical expenses not recovered from medical aid. Register for TaxTim and let us help you file and submit your return to SARS.
