Part VI : Payment, Recovery and Refund Tax

40D. Liability for tax and limitation of refunds in respect of National Housing Programmes

 

(1) This section applies in respect of the supply of services deemed to be made by the vendor in terms of section 8(23) which services were supplied before 1 April 2017.

 

(2) Where the Commissioner issued any assessment relating to tax periods ending before 1 April 2017 for an amount of tax or additional tax in respect of any supply of services as contemplated in subsection (1) in respect of application of the provisions as contemplated in section 11(2)(s) in respect of that supply, the Commissioner must, on written application by the vendor, amend that assessment to the extent that the amount of tax, additional tax, penalty or interest that arose as a result of that assessment has not yet been paid on that date: Provided that the assessment does not result in a refund to the vendor.

 

(3) The Commissioner may not make any assessment for tax periods ending before 1 April 2017 in respect of the deemed supply of services contemplated in subsection (1).

 

(4) If the vendor has charged tax at the rate referred to in section 7(1) instead of the rate of tax in terms of section 11(2)(s) in respect of the supply contemplated in subsection (1), the Commissioner may not refund any such tax or any penalty or interest that arose as a result of the late payment of such tax, paid by the vendor to the Commissioner.
