  • Employed only for final few days of FY23/24, first pay received in FY24/25. How to report?

    First time filing SA, want to make sure I get this right. Some details: - I was unemployed for most of Financial Year 2023/24 - I started a PAYE job on 2 April 2024 - I received my first pay from this job at the end of April 2024. In short, I was a PAYE employee for 4 days of FY23/24 (2, 3, 4 and 5 April), therefore I have stated on my SA that I was an employee in FY23/24. However, I did not physically receive any salary into my bank account in FY23/24. What do I put in the "Income" section, where it asks how much pay I received from this job/employer? Do I need to calculate and input the equivalent pay for those 4 days? Or, given that I did not actually receive any payments from this employer in FY23/24, should I have stated that I was not an employee in FY23/24?
