Know exactly where your tax return stands.
PayAnchor prepares and submits your SARS returns. TCMS shows you the status of each one, what we still need from you, and every year you have filed before.
Seven statuses. No more asking where your return is.
Every return moves through the same steps. You see the current one, who changed it and when, and you get an email each time it moves.
