Common questions
What changed on 1 July 2026?
The rate on income between $18,201 and $45,000 fell from 16% to 15%. Anyone earning over $45,000 saves $268 a year compared with 2025–26. The rate is legislated to fall again to 14% from 1 July 2027.
What is the low income tax offset (LITO)?
LITO reduces the tax of lower-income earners by up to $700. It reduces gradually above $37,500 and cuts out at $66,667. It can reduce your tax to zero but isn't paid out as a refund.
How much tax do I pay on $100,000?
About $20,520 in income tax plus a $2,000 Medicare levy, so $22,520 in total, before any HELP repayment or deductions.
Can I calculate tax for previous years?
Yes. Choose any financial year from 2012–13 onwards. Each year uses that year's tax brackets, Medicare levy, low income and low and middle income tax offsets, budget repair levy (2014–15 to 2016–17) and HELP repayment rates.
Is this my tax refund?
No. Your refund depends on how much your employer withheld during the year, plus your deductions and offsets. A registered tax agent can work out your actual position.
