💰 A big tax refund feels great—but why are you getting it?💰
A refund usually means you paid more tax during the year than you needed to. It’s your own money coming back to you.
The goal isn’t necessarily the biggest refund. It’s paying the right amount of tax and claiming the deductions you’re entitled to.
Keep your receipts, stay organised, and give your accountant the full picture.
Do you prefer a bigger refund at tax time, or more money in your pay throughout the year?

Pay as you go (PAYG) instalments help you pay tax as you earn income.

Think of it as your tax in bite-sized pieces. Instead of paying one large lump sum at tax time, you chip away at your bill throughout the year by making smaller payments.

If you earn income outside your regular wage from investments, a job on the side or a business, you might be paying this way already.

📅 Your next PAYG instalment is due by 28 April.

Here’s what you should know:

✔ instalments are based on your latest tax return or variation

✔ you can choose to start paying PAYG instalments

✔ instalments can be updated if your income changes.

✔ it’s designed to make managing your cash flow easier.
