  • Estimated tax return without the LTMI offset is sadddd šŸ˜¢

    • I saw my estimate too and it made me sad. I really needed the LMITO this year.

      I should be glad that the estimate didnā€™t come back as me owing money to them.

      Anyway Iā€™m still waiting hit all the pre fill information to be lodged.

      • Now that I'm a rich investor (with a whole $500 invested in an ETF) I won't get all the information until mid August. ETF's pass on some capital gains & taxes and it takes them a while to put all the information together, something I didn't realise was a thing, so last year I ended up having to ammend my tax return after that arrived. I ended up having to pay the tax office 17c back šŸ¤£

    • Yeah... I think it's a really big hit to a huge chunk of the population to NOT have it. Imagine if they'd just tax the fucking rich for that amount instead.

    • cries in poor

    • Oh Jesus Christ I decided to give it a go and I get back $250??????????? I've gotten back 4 figure amounts before in past years. This is fucked. I have nothing to look forward to

      Seriously need to rethink my life choices

      • Yeh... Mine went from about 2k to about 500 :( maybe I'll like... Buy a steak from Coles for the first time in 12 months or something šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

        • āœØāœØtreat yourself with the bare necessitiesāœØāœØ

        • What exactly am I supposed to be getting out of these tax changes as a sub 80k earning pleb, what the hell. I'm genuinely kind of upset now. This is going to significantly change my approach to my annual review next week

    • Aaaah crap. I'd forgotten about that.
