That is sent to you for you to declare any Miscellaneous Income you receive that is not part of your employment. The obvious thing is bonuses paid as a lump sum in cash, or if you do work for another company are weekends and are paid in Cash. Send it back marked 'Not Applicable' or 'Nil' in the boxes. They will let you know if they have 'information' that you have another income.

Payments to others

If you are involved in a trade or business and receive payments from other people or entities, these transactions will likely be reported to you and the IRS if they total more than certain amounts during the tax year. Depending on the nature of these payments, the IRS requires the amounts paid to be reported on either Form 1099-MISC in the case of payments for rent, royalties, prizes and awards, substitute payments in lieu of dividends and other items or 1099-NEC if the payments represent nonemployee compensation.
Prior to tax year 2020 these payments usually appeared on Form 1099-MISC. Now, businesses must separately report nonemployee compensation on Form 1099-NEC. Any payments made to employees, including income, retirement contributions, insurance payments, expense reimbursements and travel expenses, typically go on Form W-2. Other than the change for nonemployee compensation, the use of Form 1099-MISC remains mostly the same for payment reporting.

An ITR12 or Income Tax Return is a form that SARS requires all individuals (including provisional taxpayers) to complete and submit to SARS once every year. The form is used to declare your incomes and expenses so that SARS can calculate how much tax you need to pay, or how much of a tax refund SARS needs to pay you.

If you worked during the year, you would normally receive a W-2. If you have miscellaneous income (other than employment), you will get a 1099. The IRS has deadlines for companies to comply with sending out these notifications to you. If you feel that you should receive one or the other and have not, contact the company directly.

Supposedly, tax refunds (if there are no problems with the tax return) will be sent by the IRS two to six weeks after the filing date.

If a refund is due to the taxpayer SARS automatically pays the refund into the taxpayer's bank account; provided that the details are correct. If banking details are not correct the taxpayer must visit a SARS branch office with supporting documents to correct the bank account details. To prevent fraud, SARS last year did away with issuing of refund cheques and will only pay refunds into verified bank accounts. In this regard SARS has contacted approximately 150 000 taxpayers whose bank account details were not provided on their income tax return or who bank account details could not be verified to request that they correct these to receive refunds due. To prevent fraud or "phishing", these taxpayers are required to correct their details in person at a SARS branch. The SARS Anti-Corruption an Fraud Hotline is 0800 002870

If you haven't received your state tax refund yet and are wondering about its status, you can utilize the "Where's My Refund" tool found on each state's website. The only exceptions for this are New Hampshire and Tennessee, both of which do not provide an online tool. You can call the numbers 603-230-5920 and 800-342-1003 respectively to request for more information.
Note that it takes about 4-6 weeks to process tax returns after they are received. If you do decide to use the online tool, it would be wise to keep on hand a record of your Social Security Number and your state tax return information.

Working with a reliable CPA can help you process your tax refunds much easier. If you haven't found one yet, you can look for an accountancy network to give you some recommendations.

This is a sticky wicket. The IRS says that if YOU took out the loan for a qualified dependent, you can claim the interest. You are making it sound like the loan is the child's loan, and not in your name. This could be problematic. Here is the rule from the IRS. Read and decide for yourself. You may want to consult a tax attorney or CPA.

You did keep a copy of your T-4 and T-5 and other receipts?
If so, redo your return, to recalculate, but do not submit it.

A Form 1099-INT is a tax form that reports the interest income you received from various sources, including savings accounts, during the year. Here are some steps you can take to obtain a copy of your Form 1099-INT for the year 2013:

1. Contact your bank or financial institution: Call or visit the website of the bank or financial institution where you have your savings account. They should be able to provide you with a copy of your Form 1099-INT for the year 2013 if they are still keeping the records.
2. Check online: Some banks and financial institutions make the 1099-INT available online, you can check if the bank where you have your savings account has the option to download it, if they have this option, you may need to log in to your account and follow the instructions to download the form.
3. Check with the IRS: If you have not received your Form 1099-INT, or if you've lost it, you can request a copy from the IRS by calling 1-800-829-1040 or by visiting the local IRS office. Keep in mind that the IRS may not have a record of the form if it was not filed properly or if the bank is no longer in business.
4. Check your previous year's tax return: If you have a copy of your tax return for the year 2013, you can check the form for the interest income reported on line 8a of your 1040 tax return.

Keep in mind that 1099-INT forms are usually issued by January 31st of each year, so if you don't receive a copy of your form by then, you should contact the issuing institution or the IRS as soon as possible.
It's important to keep in mind that, if the interest income you received during the year 2013 was less than $10, you will not receive a 1099-INT. Also, if the interest income is from a non-taxable account, such as a Roth IRA, you will not receive a 1099-INT form for the account.
