Good Day When I get to the Tax Compliance Satus Request after I clicked Request it takes time, I have been waiting for an hour busy with the Form.... What should I do now?

Hi Andre, I am trying to deregister a company and every time I submit the tax compliance status, CIPC keeps reponding that I need to attach a tax clearance and submit the whole application. And that the tax clearance certificate or any other written confirmation from SARS that the company has no tax liability was not attached to the application. Any idea how to get this certificate or confrimation from SARS?
Yep it is... For any other administrative services you require on your efiling kindly contact us on 066 362 4412 or 066 072 0899 (Tshegofatso or Vinolia).

How long does it take for SARS to successfully register an organization for any of the different tax types? or is there anything i should do to after registering an organization to choose a specific tax type?
Hi Andre, could you please upload an updated video on this as Adobe flash player has stopped running since January 2021 and I am unable to get my tax clearance. Kind regards.
A temporary solution is to use Google Chrome and change the date of your PC to 11/01/2021. Then log back into SARS eFiling and follow my steps. This is the only solution I've seen that actually works.
Hi, thank you for the video. What do we do with the pin? I've gotten to all of this myself but no further. How do I download the actual Tax compliance certificate after having the pin. Thanks.
Hi Andre thanks for the video ave gone through the tutorial but the problem is when I generate the form it just keeps saying busy preparing the form and I have installed the flash player. What can I do now?
You must use Google Chrome and click on "Run This Time" when the notification pops up. Also, for this to work, you'll also need to backdate the time on your PC to 11/01/2021 to get Flash Player to work.
Thank you for the informational video. So I presume we cannot print a tax clearance certificate like in the past and third parties will be satisfied with this.
When I click on Activaton, it writes (IN Red) " This service will only work when you have been successfully registered on e-filing for any of the following taxes: Income Tax (IT), Value Added Tax (VAT), Pay As You Earn (PAYE)." How do I go about doing that?
Your income tax tax type must first be activated - You'll need to check whether the tax type is registered (It should be under Organisation Tax Types).
@Andre mine all tax types are registered but it keep showing this message, and says "you are not listed as the appointed representative of the taxpayer"
Hi, this year I filed return 7 days late. So how do they do calculations? Are they going to charge for the whole months? And do they charge on gross income?
