Frequently Asked Questions

What is an individual tax return?
An individual tax return is a form you submit to the tax department to report your income, expenses, and any other relevant financial details for the year. It helps the government figure out whether you owe more tax or are due for a refund.

You need to lodge an individual tax return if you earned income during the year—this could be from a job, business, investments, or other sources. To lodge your tax return, reach out to Smart Digits and apply for personal tax return services in Australia.

Deductions reduce your taxable income, which means you could pay less tax. Common deductions include:

  • Work-related expenses (like uniforms, tools, or travel for work)

  • Education and training costs related to your job

  • Charitable donations

Some home office expenses
 The deductions you can claim depend on your personal situation and the country’s tax rules.

We ensure accuracy, maximise deductions, save you time, reduce errors, and provide expert advice tailored to your situation.

Stay calm, read the notice, gather records, and contact Smart Digits so we can guide you and deal with the ATO on your behalf.
