How do I lodge my tax return?

Published: Feb 19, 2021

Short answer

To file your tax return and claim tax back in Australia, you’ll need your final payslip from each job, your Tax File Number (TFN), and receipts for any work-related expenses like tools, uniforms, or courses. These documents help ensure an accurate and complete tax return.

In order to file your tax return and claim your tax back you will need:

Your payslips: keep your final payslip from each job safe, as this is the most important one when filing your return.
Tax File Number (TFN): You will need your tax file number when filing your return as it is a personal reference number in the tax and superannuation systems to identify you.
Work-related expenses: keep any receipts for work-related expenses, such as uniform, course, tools, car, etc.
