Tax deduction on invoice made out in someone else's name

By Marc Sevitz · Updated

Question: For disability tax, can I claim a qualifying expense that I paid for although the invoice from the service provider was made out in the name of my wife?

If SARS ask you for copies of the invoice as documentary evidence then you need to provide the proof of payment and a reason as to why you pay for it and it is only in her name for documentary purposes.
