Expecting a refund but received a tax bill instead? 🤔
There are several reasons your tax result may be different this year, including:
• Not enough tax withheld by your employer
• Income from multiple jobs
• Bank interest or investment income
• HELP/HECS repayment obligations
• Changes to your income or deductions
• Medicare or private health insurance adjustments
A smaller refund—or a tax bill—doesn’t necessarily mean your return was prepared incorrectly. Your result is based on your total income, tax withheld, deductions and individual circumstances.
Not sure why your result changed? Let Maria or Vanessa explain your tax calculation clearly.

💡 Heard about the new $1,000 standard tax deduction?
Before you claim it, here’s the important part: it does not apply to the 2025–26 tax return you’re lodging now.
For your current tax return, the usual deduction and record-keeping requirements still apply. The new standard deduction is intended to begin from the 2026–27 income year for eligible taxpayers.
Not sure what you can claim this year? Speak with Maria or Vanessa before lodging.

💻 Working from home? Don’t miss out on deductions you may be entitled to.
Many Australians are still unaware that working from home can mean more than just claiming electricity.
Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to claim expenses such as:
✔️ Electricity used while working
✔️ Internet and mobile phone
✔️ Stationery and office supplies
✔️ Decline in value of work-related equipment
✔️ A portion of eligible home office running expenses
But remember — not everything used at home is claimable. To claim a deduction, the expense must be related to earning your income, and you’ll need the appropriate records to support your claim.
Not sure what you can claim? That’s where we can help.

🚗 Think you can claim your car? You might be surprised.
Car expenses are one of the most commonly misunderstood tax deductions, and the ATO is paying close attention to these claims this tax season.
A few things to remember:
✔️ Travel between workplaces may be claimable.
✔️ Visiting clients or customers may be claimable.
✔️ You’ll need the right records, such as a logbook where required.
❌ Your normal trip between home and work is generally not claimable.
❌ Don’t claim kilometres simply because “everyone else does.”
Every situation is different, so it’s important to understand what you’re actually entitled to claim before lodging your tax return.
