Timely Tax Aid

For South African accountants & bookkeepers

Never chase a client for a SARS, CIPC or Labour deadline by hand again.

Timely Tax Aid keeps your practice's statutory diary, drafts the reminders, and collects the documents — while every email still gets a professional sign-off before it leaves your firm.

How the app works, step by step

From the day you import your clients to the day the filing receipt lands.

1. Your statutory diary builds itself

Import your client list from Excel. Every VAT201, EMP201/501, ITR12/14, provisional tax, CIPC annual return, BO filing and COIDA return is diarised automatically — rolled for SA public holidays.

2. Reminders are drafted for you

Each night the system drafts a reminder per client at the cadence your practice sets (e.g. T−14, T−7, T−3, T−1), listing exactly which documents are still missing.

3. An accountant approves every email

Drafts wait in the Approval desk. Nothing reaches a client until a principal or accountant edits, approves, holds or dismisses it.

4. Clients upload without a login

Each client gets a private, branded link to see their deadlines and reminders, upload documents, or snap slips with their phone camera.

Workbenches for the rest of the job

Daily discrepancy audit

Every morning principals receive a digest of unchased, unfiled or overdue work against what each client contracted for.

Credential vault

SARS eFiling, CIPC and COIDA logins encrypted on your device, unlocked with an authenticator app, limited to office hours.

Bank statement → Pastel

Convert CSV or PDF statements, allocate with remembered rules, check the balance, then export a Pastel-ready file.

SARS receipt store

Drop filed SARS receipts in; they match to the right deadline and stay versioned for proof of submission.

CIPC & iXBRL utilities

Draft CoR30.1 and CoR39 forms from company profiles and validate financial summaries before submitting on CIPC.

Client slip capture

Clients photograph slips for petty cash or a VAT period; details are read automatically for review and Pastel export.

Built around how a practice is run

Each staff member signs in with their own account. What they can see and approve depends on their role, and every action is recorded in a tamper-proof audit trail.

Principal

Full practice view, manages staff, covers and branding, approves any client.

Accountant

Works and signs off their own portfolio, plus clients a principal has given cover for.

Assistant

Prepares work across all clients; an accountant signs it off.
