Questions

Common questions

How is income tax worked out in Australia?

As a resident you pay nothing on the first $18,200 of taxable income. Above it the rate starts at 15% and rises through the scale's brackets to 45% on income over $190,000. Only the part of your income inside each bracket is taxed at that bracket's rate.

What is the Low Income tax offset?

An offset of up to $700 that comes off your income tax, never off the Medicare levy. It is the full amount up to $37,500 of taxable income, then reduces until it reaches nothing at $66,667. It cannot take your income tax below nil.

How much is the Medicare levy?

2% of your taxable income. There is none at or below $28,011; above that it is shaded in, so it is never more than 10% of your income over that threshold, until it reaches the full rate at $35,013.
