避免税收时间冲击

澳大利亚税务局(ATO)为纳税人提供了一些简单的步骤,以帮助他们在下个报税季避免意外的税单。 助理专员Rob Thomson表示,纳税人可能在报税时收到税单的原因有很多。 “有很多因素会影响您的税务评估。简单来说,如果您没有收到退税或税单,说明您全年缴纳了正确金额的税。如果收到税单,可能意味着您缴纳的税不够——原因可能有很多种。”Thomson先生说道。 现在您可以采取以下简单步骤,确保全年预留足够的税款: “记住,如果您有多个收入来源,您可能会因为总收入提升而进入不同的税率或学习贷款还款等级,导致收到税单。”Thomson先生说道。 更多关于如何为多个收入来源缴税或为何会收到税单的信息,可以在ATO官网找到。 “在您今年报税前,我们建议您核对信息是否正确——如果需要更新学习或培训支持贷款等信息,可以在报税时一并处理。”Thomson先生补充道。 “如果您在报税后收到税单,重要的是不要忽视它,但大多数税单并不是一收到就必须支付的。” “许多人误以为税务债务的利率低于典型的房贷利率。实际上并非如此。”Thomson先生说道。 对于面临财务困难或经济困境的纳税人,请尽早联系ATO或注册税务专业人士,讨论可用的支持选项,包括分期付款计划。 请注意:本文中的许多评论是一般性的,任何有意将其应用于实际情况的人士应寻求专业意见,以独立验证信息的解释及其适用于特定情况的适用性。
