I am starting a new job. My salary will be R10 000,00 a month plus a R2 000 petrol allowance. No other benefits. What can I expect to clear?

Thank you. You were very helpful. Is there a way I can ask my company to say I earn R12 000 without a petrol allowance? The tax is so much on a petrol allowance.

Either way it would be the same, only on the petrol allowance if you keep a logbook you will be able to claim so of your traveling costs.
