Ratings and reviews

I've been struggling with the SARS app recently and I'm honestly baffled. Every single time I attempt to log in, it simply refuses to cooperate. I've gone through the usual troubleshooting steps: clearing data and cache, uninstalling and reinstalling the app countless times. Despite all my efforts, it still stubbornly fails to take me to the homepage. This has become incredibly frustrating and disappointing, especially considering the importance of accessing such services seamlessly.

It's about what I expected. First time clicking on your tax return and it doesn't work, then you look around the app, get frustrated by the back button meaning quit application, and then try the tax return button again and suddenly it's working and I have an assessment out of nowhere. So, very buggy, but good enough for now. Too many permissions requested upfront. You're able to reject them all though.

The app worked fine for the past few seasons but all of a sudden I can't log on this year . The app just won't let me in. I've rebooted, uninstalled, installed, gave it a few days, did a rain dance but nothing... Please fix this developers.
