3. How does this service work?

 For your convenience we have developed 2 methods in which you can make history (back payments) and future monthly payments towards UIF for your domestic worker(s).

 
These methods are:   

• Via debit order (strongly recommended). We do everything on your behalf. You get a monthly reminder via e-mail of the amount going off on debit order as well as your current domestic worker’s details. The only time you need to do anything is if any of the details e.g. the salary/ domestic employee changes from what is currently on our system. Details currently on our system will be e-mailed to you monthly. 

Send us an e-mail here to get the debit order process rolling.

 OR  

• Via online payment. You can log into our website monthly and make payments via credit card/ eft

 *please note we utilise the u-filing system for making payments and declarations, we also do not include any penalties which may be levied for late declarations/payments
