Benefits of Using the Voluntary Disclosure Programme to Rectify Past Tax Errors 

The Voluntary Disclosure Programme (VDP), under section 225 to 233 of the Tax Administration Act (TAA), provides you with the grace to organise your tax affairs by voluntarily disclosing past tax defaults.  

“The VDP seeks to encourage compliance while affording relief from certain penalties and criminal prosecution,” says Jordan Mulindi, Tax Attorney at Latita Africa. “The TAA establishes the VDP as a mechanism through which taxpayers may disclose tax defaults.”  

Section 227(1) defines a ‘default’ as the submission of inaccurate information, failure to submit returns, or non-compliance with obligations imposed under the TAA. To qualify for the programme, your disclosure must be voluntary, full, and complete, and you must not already be under investigation by SARS as provided by section 226 of the TAA. 

Relief from Penalties and Criminal Prosecution 

The VDP is aimed at promoting tax compliance by offering you a structured route to address historical non-compliance without fear of criminal prosecution. It also aligns with SARS’ broader mandate to encourage compliance while protecting the integrity of the tax system. 

One of the primary benefits of the VDP is the relief it provides from certain penalties. Section 229 of the TAA specifies that SARS may waive understatement penalties, which are ordinarily levied under Section 222 of the same Act.  

“The relief does not extend to interest on unpaid taxes, which remains payable,” says Mulindi. “Importantly, the programme also ensures that if you meet its requirements, you aren’t subjected to criminal prosecution for the disclosed defaults.” 

Restoring SARS Compliance 

A clean compliance record is critical for businesses, particularly those seeking tax clearance certificates for tender applications or financing arrangements. Mulindi confirms that for individuals, especially high-net-worth individuals or expatriates with complex tax affairs, the VDP provides an avenue to rectify errors such as unreported offshore income or non-disclosure of foreign assets. The benefits of restoring compliance extend beyond penalty relief, they contribute to long-term financial planning and credibility. 

By addressing tax defaults proactively through the VDP, you can avoid the potential consequences of a SARS tax audit. Section 233 of the TAA stipulates that information disclosed during a VDP application is not admissible in criminal proceedings, except where false information is provided.  

This provision provides you with a safeguard by encouraging transparency during the application process. A SARS tax audit can lead to significant financial and reputational risks, particularly where defaults are discovered without voluntary disclosure.  

Enhancing Tax Planning and Wealth Structuring 

Mulindi encourages participation in the VDP as it will also enable you to streamline their tax affairs, facilitating more effective tax planning and wealth structuring. For businesses, this may involve aligning remuneration structuring or addressing inaccuracies in prior deduction claims.  

For individuals, particularly expatriates, the programme offers an opportunity to rectify expatriate tax mistakes and ensure compliance with tax implications arising from offshore banking compliance. Aligning your financial strategies with legal requirements helps you to avoid disputes and ensure efficient tax planning. 

Professional Tax Advice and Compliance Support 

Engaging a qualified tax practitioner is often integral to the successful submission of a VDP application. Tax attorneys can provide guidance on the preparation of supporting documentation, such as tax returns and financial statements, while ensuring compliance with SARS’ formal obligations. 

Additionally, tax practitioners can assist with navigating potential complexities, including SARS ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) processes, should disputes arise. 

The significance of professional advice in VDP matters is highlighted by the link between technical expertise and compliance requirements. Ensuring accurate and complete disclosure is not only a legal obligation but also essential for securing the full benefits of the programme. 

By leveraging the programme, you can restore SARS compliance, mitigate risks associated with tax audits, and enhance your financial planning strategies.

CDP: The Claire Driven Project

[Originally published in Fashion Fag Magazine, November-December, Volume 1, Number 4, 1994]

The slow but systematic take over of VDP (The Volunteer Driven Program) or The Berlin Wall gets constructed in GMHC.

Wednesday, October 12, 5:00p.m., 1 am tryin to leave my house and get my butt down to the theatre when the phone rings.

"Hi it's Claire Shanley."

What does she want - is she going to reprimand me about cursin' to much or being too ethnic.

"Hi Claire, how are you doing?"

She tells me that she would like to have a meeting with me on Monday. I question her as to what the meeting is about. She says its about the Program. And as always she erected a barrier and any more information was withheld. We scheduled an appointment for 2:30 on Monday and I hung up.

Well of course I was feeling a scheme of some sort rising, as I never really got along with Claire from the get go. And her recent reprimand of my language at the Open House. I instantly thought she was going to try and pull a Chris M on me. But unlike Chris I have a loaded gun and won't, be shooting blanks.

I have been with this program since its birth. I've been there to see its formation, its changes in structure and membership, and I have been very active in the forming of the structure that now governs it. My time and energy along with others have given this program its success.

I'm not stupid I'm not going to go in to battle with the enemy unarmed. So I immediately called Matt Carlin and shared with him my secret meeting with Claire & Joe. I got his machine. I then called Adamo, to let my sister know that there was a conspiracy to oust me. I wanted them to stand with me and if I was made to leave I would want them to leave with me. I got Adamo's machine also. I had to go to work so I'd call them back after work.

At work all I could think about was what they wanted to talk with me about. Naturally on the defensive I began to form counter-arguments. My mind was raked, I couldn't believe they would try to make me leave, especially after all I've done for that program.

I was there for the controversy around the COPE conference, The Young Hot & Safe campaign where I actually spoke at the press conference, the meeting with the education committee, and the much talked about meeting with Jeff Richardson. How dare they ask me to leave, I am the soul of the program since Daniel left.

Claire's icy coldness and poor facilitation skill, do not make these meetings a treat to come to. People like Adamo, Matt C, Amanda, Cecilia, Prudence, Leilani, Persio and John make these meetings. Not Claire or Joe.

This is the VOLUNTEER DRIVEN PROGRAM. They gave us the name, and supposedly the power why are they trying to take that away from us. I long for the days of Daniel, he would not do something as covert and sneaky as Ms. Shanley.

I got home about 11:00pm and was eager to check the machine. The light blinked three messages. Thats it. I pressed the button.

"You're not the only one."

Matt's voice blared from my machine.

"I got a message right before yours on my machine from Mr. Lunievicz, saying that he wanted me to come in for a special meeting at 5:00..."

I was cut off by the phone ringing. It was one of my actresses from the theatre. I quickly got off the phone, and returned to my messages.

"Hi this is Adamo I got a message from Joe..."

STOP!

You know I started this story months ago when it was happening but then I stopped because I wanted to put the whole situation behind me. Right now I'm very bitter towards Joe and Claire and GMHC for letting it happen and not trying to protect us. I tried to just get some advice from Robert Penn to no avail, he wouldn't even speak to me. I felt so betrayed after all I'd done. This is how they treat a young person who volunteers his time to fight HIV/AIDS. No, I don't think so. Because of the whole event I have taken a rest from HIV/AIDS education.

I stopped goin to my CCP meetings even though I was getting paid to go, and it would have been great to take GMHC's money and laugh in Joe and Claire's face because they couldn't stop me from goin. But I lost my inspiration to pursue any kind of AIDS-related volunteer work. I even stopped going to my COPE meetings. I'm feeling very down over our treatment. I sort of expected it but when it came to reality it was very harsh. I lost more than the opportunity to further my facilitation skills but I lost the wonderful group of people that attended those meetings. And that hurts the most.

I know I see these people around from time to time, but its not the same. I used to look forward to going to these meetings, they were so fun and sociable, but all that has changed under the reign of Claire that fun which made the work fun was squashed. Thus the end of an era. May the VDP rest in peace.

[Afterwords: I will be frank I can't remember specifically what happened, but whatever it was it was traumatic. I never even walked on the block that GMHC was on for decades afterward, forgetting the reasons why I didn't want to even see that building anymore. But like I said in the piece I was very discouraged from all of my volunteer and activism work. It would be years before I did some final work with NYPAEC and have never done any since.

All of the adults involved including Krishna Stone should be ashamed at what they did to these eager and enthusiastic young people were not only passionate about the work they were doing, but also trying to work within the system to do more advocacy.

GMHC wasn't happy that we were holding them to account for the fact that young people made most of their monies, through the AIDS Walk and the Dance for AIDS and those same monies were not allocated to prevention efforts with the same young people. We called them out on that hypocrisy even calling for a meeting with the CEO. We were persona non-grata not for being difficult but for challenging the hegemony.

The call was coming from within the house is a huge reason that I stepped away from the LGBT communities all together. Here were a pretty cohesive group of brilliant young diverse queers working together to save and protect other young queers and a queer organization was seeking to discourage and dismantle them.

Miss me with all that.

It was such an important part of my life finding a social issue and a friend group to assist me in doing the work. Our energy should have been harnessed for the greater good, but as always the organization was self-serving and not really interested in a fair distribution of funds, we were fucking with peoples paychecks ergo we all had to go.

The other significant things to mention as I re-read this piece was the fact that I was still working in theatre, and was residing at my first apartment in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Adamo still had the vowel on the end of his name, I don't think Matt was a lawyer quite yet and I still thought of Amanda and Cecilia as a package deal. I was just thinking about if I had any images of all of us together and I don't. I don't think we recorded ourselves, we were just so focused on the work, we never thought about how monumental what it was that we were doing.

I do have contact sheets - names, phone numbers and addresses for our members, but they aren't easy to get to, otherwise I would include a shot of them here-within. Also the answering machine, these kids today just don't know how messy answering machines were, but were such a common-place thing. I think I lost that one in my fire in ninety-eight, and am pretty sure I never replaced it.

Last word on Joe, I had always found Joe HAWT, because he wore jeans that fit way too tightly for being an alleged straight-man working at a very queer service agency. I did find a photo of him that is close to how he would have looked in the nineties, and he looks as good as I remember him. He was also slightly bow-legged which was also quite sexy, but in hindsight I am glad that he was a straight white male, because it made it so much more appropriate when he did what he did to a group of queers of color for allegedly the greater good but really just was protecting his very firm ass.
