Although SA produces around 200 000 new graduates yearly, only 6 127 new taxpayers contributed to personal income tax last year. | News24_Business

collected 8.3% more personal income tax than in the past tax year, boosted by the 7.5% growth in employment numbers and the 5.3% increase in the country's wage bill.

"The register grows by millions, but the point we are making is that some are job seekers because some employers insist that before people come for opportunities, they must be registered with us… We were very careful to indicate that it's a smaller [new taxpayer] population that ends up contributing," said SARS chief revenue officer, Johnstone Makhubu.

This percentage of new taxpayers contributing PAYE is despite the fact that around 200 000 graduates leave SA universities, colleges and other tertiary institutions every year. Many are not absorbed in the labour market for years. And a significant portion of those who do, get into learnerships and internships.Those who get absorbed in the labour force must earn more than R95 750 a year to start paying tax – the PIT threshold.
