- 2. Enter your income — your gross pay, tax withheld, and any deductions.
- 3. Get your estimate — we calculate it on real ATO rates, show your refund, and email you a copy with a link to lodge.
Real data, no guesswork. Every figure uses the official ATO brackets and Medicare levy thresholds for the year you select.
Students & temporary residents: we treat you as a tax resident but exempt from the Medicare levy (you may be entitled to claim it back).
Calculator FAQs
It uses the current 2024–25 ATO resident tax rates and a standard 2% Medicare levy. It's a close guide, but it doesn't include every offset (LITO, HELP/HECS, private health), so your final figure may differ. A registered agent confirms your exact result.
Enter your total gross income before tax for the financial year — you'll find this on your payslips or income statement in myGov/ATO online.
It's the total 'tax withheld' (PAYG) amount on your income statement or final payslip for the year.
Completely free. We'll email you a copy of your estimate and, if you'd like, an agent can lodge your return from $50.
