Frequently Asked Questions

If you earn more than the tax-free threshold ($18,200) in a financial year, you're required to lodge a tax return. Even if you earn less, you may still need to file if you’ve had tax withheld from your income or received government support payments.

Construction workers can claim deductions for protective gear (boots, gloves, high-vis), tools and equipment (under $300 for instant write-off), travel between job sites, and even training or license renewal costs related to their role.

PAYG (Pay As You Go) instalments are prepayments towards your expected tax bill, paid quarterly. They’re calculated by the ATO based on your previous year’s income, but you can vary the amount if your earnings change significantly.

The official deadline to lodge your 2024–2025 tax return is 31 October 2025. Using a registered tax agent like Tax Savers may give you extended time. Late lodgement can result in ATO penalties and interest.

Absolutely! We specialize in small business tax including BAS, GST, payroll, and contractor returns. Our team ensures your business stays compliant while claiming every eligible deduction to help boost your return.

To claim deductions, you’ll need to keep receipts for expenses, logbooks for car use, bank statements, and income summaries for up to five years. Good record-keeping supports your claims and protects you during an audit.

Some government payments, such as Newstart or JobSeeker, are taxable. Others, like the Age Pension, are tax-free but must still be declared as they can affect your tax offsets and entitlements.

Most Australian taxpayers pay a Medicare Levy of 2% of their taxable income. Low-income earners and those with eligible private health insurance may receive full or partial exemptions, reducing their total tax payable.

Yes. If you work from home—even partially—you can claim a percentage of your internet, electricity, phone, and home office equipment. Make sure to maintain accurate records or logs to support your deduction.

Unlike DIY platforms, Tax Savers offers expert advice, personalized service, and maximizes your refund by identifying deductions you may overlook. We also handle complex tax scenarios and provide support in case of an ATO audit.
