To check your employment status online in South Africa, you can follow these steps:

  1. Visit the official website of the South African Revenue Service (SARS) at www.sars.gov.za.
  2. On the SARS homepage, look for the “Individuals” or “Taxpayers” section. Click on it to proceed.
  3. Within the Individuals/Taxpayers section, search for an option related to “Employment” or “Tax Certificates.” It may be listed under headings such as “Income Tax” or “Tax Returns.” Click on the relevant link.
  4. You will likely be prompted to log in or create an account if you don’t have one. Follow the instructions to set up an account if needed.
  5. Once logged in, navigate to the section that allows you to view your employment or tax-related information. Look for options like “View Tax Certificates” or “Employment History.”
  6. Select the appropriate option and provide any necessary details such as your taxpayer identification number or personal information to verify your identity.
  7. After completing the required steps, the system should provide you with access to your employment status or related information. This may include details such as your current employer, job history, and tax-related information.

Please note that the exact process and layout of the website may vary, and it’s always a good idea to refer to the instructions and guidance provided on the official SARS website.
