Even small errors, missing information, or vague medical details can result in SARS disallowing the claim or requesting additional verification.

The ITR-DD form is a SARS-required document used to confirm both the diagnosis and severity of a disability. It must be completed by a qualified medical practitioner and is essential for claiming the disability tax benefit. 


The amount depends on your qualifying expenses, but many taxpayers underclaim due to incorrect or incomplete submissions.
Qualifying expenses may include therapy, specialised schooling, assistive devices, and care-related travel.
