Check your auto-assessment status and wait for the notice

4 July 2024 –  If you want to know if you are in the auto-assessment population this year, you can check your status on the SARS Online Query System (SOQS). Remember we are rolling out the auto-assessments in batches over a two week period, from 1 to 14 July 2024.

In other words, even though SOQS may indicate that you are part of the auto-assessment population, the auto-assessment (ITA34) will only be available on eFiling when it’s rolled out according to the schedule.

Please wait for your auto-assessment notice before you login to eFiling or call the Contact Centre, as it will not be available on eFiling before the notice was sent.
