Changing a tax return already filed

By Marc Sevitz · Updated 25 August 2014

I did not make a claim for medical expenses on my 2013 income tax return which I filed a year ago. I have now discovered that I could have claimed a deduction for medical expenses in excess of 7.5% of my taxable income. Can I change a tax return that has already been submitted to SARS, and if so, how do I do this on eFiling and how is this likely to be viewed by SARS?

You can click 'request correction' on your eFiling profile and resubmit. SARS may request you to submit further supporting documents, but if everything is in order there should not be a problem.
