Getting Started
Do You Need to Lodge a Tax Return?
Most working Australians need to lodge each year, but it depends on how much you earned and how much tax was withheld from your pay. Lodging a return lets you work out whether you're owed a refund or have tax to pay. If you're unsure where you stand, Tax Falcon can help you understand what applies to your situation.
Working Life
Income and Deductions
Whether you're in an office, on the tools, in healthcare, hospitality or retail, your income needs to be included in your tax return — and you may have expenses related to earning it that could be deductible.
Clothing & Uniforms
Work related clothing and uniform costs.
Phone & Internet
Work related phone and internet use.
Travel
Claim your eligible work travel costs.
Tools & Equipment
Tools and equipment used for work.
Other Expenses
Other eligible work related expenses apply.
Not sure what you can claim? We make it easier to identify deductions you may be entitled to.
More Than One Income Source
What About Other Income?
More than one job
If you had more than one employer during the year, all of your income needs to be reported together. Tax Falcon brings your income information together so nothing gets missed.
Bank interest & other income
Interest from savings, dividends and other income you received during the year also needs to be included. We help make sure it's captured correctly in your return.
Study Loans
What About HECS HELP?
How it's factored in
Have a HECS HELP or other study loan? Your loan details are taken into account when preparing your return. A HECS HELP debt doesn't automatically mean you must repay, compulsory repayments depend on your repayment income and the applicable ATO threshold.
Worth remembering
HECS HELP repayments are never tax deductible, no matter how much you've paid during the year. We'll still record your loan details carefully so your return reflects your correct tax position and repayment obligations.

Questions
Standard Tax Return FAQs
How much does a standard tax return cost?
A Tax Falcon Standard Tax Return costs $88, with no extra charges for deduction checks, ATO pre-fill or agent review.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
Where eligible, you can choose to have our $88 fee deducted from your refund once it's issued, so there's nothing to pay before you lodge.
Can I get a tax refund?
You may be entitled to a refund if tax was withheld from your income and your final tax calculation shows you've paid more than required.
Do I need to lodge a tax return every year?
Not everyone needs to lodge. It depends on your income, tax withheld and individual circumstances each year.
What can I claim as a work related deduction?
You may be able to claim eligible work related expenses such as uniforms, phone and internet use, travel, tools and equipment. Specific ATO rules apply to each.
What if I had more than one job during the year?
That's okay. Income from all of your jobs is included in your tax return. Tax Falcon brings your income information together so your return is prepared correctly.
Does HECS HELP affect my tax return?
Yes. Your HECS HELP or other study loan may affect your tax position once your repayment income reaches the applicable threshold.
What if I don't get a refund, or I owe money?
If you've paid the right amount of tax, or less than required, you may not receive a refund and could have tax payable. This depends on your income, tax withheld and personal circumstances.
When is the tax return deadline in Australia?
The Australian financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June. If you lodge your own tax return, the usual deadline is 31 October.
