Frequently Asked Questions

Have Any Question?

Explore common questions and answers about tax returns in Australia to help you navigate the process with ease.

In Australia, you need to lodge a tax return if you meet any of the following criteria:

  • You earned above the tax-free threshold ($18,200) during the financial year.
  • You had tax withheld from any payments made to you during the year.
  • You are a foreign resident and earned more than $1 in Australia.
  • You are leaving Australia permanently or for more than one financial year.
  • You were entitled to the private health insurance rebate but did not claim your correct entitlement as a premium reduction.
  • You had a reportable fringe benefits amount on your PAYG summary.

To prepare your tax return, you should gather the following documents:

  • Payment summaries from your employer(s).
  • Bank statements showing interest earned.
  • Receipts or statements for any deductions you wish to claim (e.g., work-related expenses, charitable donations).
  • Statements from investment properties.
  • Details of any government payments received.
  • Private health insurance statement.
  • Any other income statements (e.g., dividends, rental income).

The deadline for lodging your tax return in Australia is generally October 31st following the end of the financial year, which runs from July 1st to June 30th. If you lodge through a registered tax agent, you may be eligible for an extended deadline, but you must contact the agent before October 31st to qualify.

Yes, you can claim work-related expenses on your tax return if the expenses are directly related to your job. Common work-related deductions include:

  • Vehicle and travel expenses.
  • Clothing, laundry, and dry-cleaning expenses.
  • Home office expenses.
  • Tools and equipment.
  • Union fees and subscriptions to professional associations.
  • Self-education expenses.

To claim these expenses, you must have spent the money yourself and not have been reimbursed, the expenses must be directly related to earning your income, and you must have records to substantiate your claims.

If you realize that you made a mistake on your tax return after it has been lodged, you should request an amendment. You can do this by logging into your myGov account linked to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) and selecting "Amend a return." If you used a registered tax agent to prepare and lodge your return, contact them to make the necessary amendments on your behalf. It is important to correct any mistakes as soon as possible to avoid potential penalties and interest on any additional tax owed.
