Where can you find your Tax File Number?

You can usually find your TFN on an old payslip, your Notice of Assessment, or in your myGov account. If you still can’t spot it, you can call the ATO on 13 28 61.

How to claim Tax Return Australia?

To claim your tax refund in Australia, jump online with Tax Falcon. We auto-fill your details, you add your work-related expenses, and we lodge it.

Do I need a tax agent to do my taxes?

You don't have to use an agent, but using a registered tax agent like Tax Falcon gets you an extended lodgement deadline (until May 15th) and ensures you don't accidentally miss out on deductions or make costly mistakes.

How long does it take to complete an Online Tax Return?

With Tax Falcon, the whole process from sign-up to lodgement takes under 10 minutes. Our direct ATO connection pre-fills your data so you don't have to type it out.

Do I need my PAYG Payment Summary?

Nope! Forget digging through old emails. We connect straight to the ATO and automatically swoop up your income details into your return.

Once we lodge your return, the ATO usually takes 10-14 business days to process it and drop the cash into your account. Prior-year returns can take up to 30 days.

What is a tax deduction?

A tax deduction is a work-related expense that reduces your taxable income. This means you pay less tax, which ultimately boosts your tax refund.

Do you still need to lodge if you earned under the tax-free threshold?

Usually, yes — especially if tax was withheld from your pay. Lodging your return is how you check whether you’re due money back. Quick win: if your employer took out tax during the year, it’s worth lodging.

Is it safe to lodge my tax return online?

Yes. Tax Falcon uses bank-level encryption to protect your data. We connect securely directly to the ATO, ensuring your personal and financial information is locked down.

I put in the wrong bank details

No stress! Message us instantly through your Tax Falcon inbox. We’ll verify your identity and help you update your bank details before the ATO sends your cash to the wrong place

When can I lodge my Tax Return?

The Australian tax year runs from 1 July to 30 June. You can start lodging your return from July 1st onward.

How It Works

A Three-Step Glide To Your Refund

Your tax refund will be sent directly to your nominated bank account once processed.

01 — Link & Pre-Fill

Create your free account in seconds flat. We securely connect to the ATO and pull your income data in automatically.

02 — Add Your Deductions

Answer a handful of simple questions and we calculate everything, flagging deductions most people miss completely.

03 — Review & Lodge

Check everything over, then submit with one tap. We keep the whole process smooth, secure, and stress-free.

Why Do Your Taxes with Tax Falcon?

Built for speed. Designed for simplicity.

The 5-Minute Flight to Finish

We've stripped every second of wasted time out of the process. Most users are done before they finish a cup of coffee.

Zero Jargon, Zero Stress

We translated the tax code into human. No “Schedules” or “Sub-sections”—just clear, easy questions.

Lodge from the Clouds

Tax Falcon is mobile-first. Lodge your return from your couch, your commute, or your favorite cafe.

Absolute Precision

Speed doesn't mean shortcuts. Our experienced agents and Falcon-Vision AI ensures your return is accurate and your refund is maximised.

⚠ This page is inconsistent about its own headline speed claim. The hero and the final testimonial CTA both say “10 minutes” / “10-Minute Return”, but this section calls it “The 5-Minute Flight to Finish” and the comparison section below calls it “A 5-minute glide”. That's a 5-vs-10-minute mismatch within the same single page, not just across different pages.

Save now, lodge later

Not ready to lodge? No worries.

You don't need everything perfect on day one. Create your free Tax Falcon account to keep all your tax docs, receipts, and pre-filled ATO data in one safe place. When you are ready to claim your refund, you'll be just a few clicks away.

Choose Tax Falcon

Pricing

Simple. Transparent. Fast.

Only $88 — Standard Tax Return

For straightforward tax returns for employees and everyday earners.

Direct ATO pre-fill
Fast online lodgement
Certified tax-agent review
Maximum refund guarantee
Reduced to $25 for Nil Return lodgements

Button: "Start My Student Tax Return"

⚠ This $88 “Standard Tax Return” card's button is labeled “Start My Student Tax Return” — mismatched copy-paste from the Student card below it. It links to the correct registration URL, but the button text names the wrong product.

⚠ “Reduced to $25 for Nil Return lodgements” does not appear on the standalone Standard Tax Return page reviewed earlier in this session (which lists the Standard Return at a flat $88 with no nil-return carve-out mentioned). Worth confirming whether this $25 nil-return rate is real and, if so, adding it to the standalone product page too.

Only $69 — Student Tax Return

An affordable tax return for eligible full-time students.

Direct ATO pre-fill
Fast online lodgement
Certified tax-agent review
Help with eligible student deductions
Maximum refund guarantee

Button: "Do My Student Tax Online"

From $229 — Sole Trader, Property, or Investor Tax Return

Detailed tax returns for sole traders, property owners and investors, with expert review.

Professional tax-agent review
Applicable Schedules.

Button: "Start Advanced Return"

⚠ Like the standalone Tax Return Pricing page, this card treats Sole Trader, Property and Investor as one combined “$229 Advanced” product — which conflicts with the “How Tax Falcon Works” hub page and the three standalone product pages (sole-trader-tax-return, investor-tax-return, property-tax-return) reviewed earlier, which all present these as three separate products. This page adds a third design pattern to the same unresolved inconsistency.

Note: Pay only when you're ready to lodge

Note: Tax refunds paid directly into your bank account

“Got My Saturday Back.” — Jess L., VIC, Software Engineer (★★★★★)

"Swooped in, got my refund sorted, and got my weekend back. Tax Falcon is legendary."

“Caught Up On Late Taxes.” — Sarah M., NSW, Registered Nurse (★★★★★)

"I was two years behind on my taxes and dreading the process. Set up an account, the ATO data was already there waiting for me, and I cleared both years in less than half an hour. What a massive relief!"

“Fast. Cheap. Easy” — Michael R., NSW, Plumber (★★★★★)

"Fast. Cheap. Easy. Tax Falcon actually makes tax time bearable."

⚠ All three testimonial photos are pulled from randomuser.me, a placeholder/“fake person” avatar-generator API commonly used for design mockups and test data — not real photos of these named customers. This is a step beyond the scraped-thumbnail issue flagged on other Tax Falcon pages: randomuser.me openly generates fictional people, so shipping this with real customer names attached would misrepresent these as genuine testimonials. Worth replacing with real customer photos (with consent) or removing the photos before this goes live.
