Updated July 2025

We get it—tax laws are a headache, and you want to get it right the first time. You deserve every deduction you’re entitled to, and you want it done quick and easy.  That’s what we’re here for. 

Tax Brackets & Gotax FAQ’s

How does GoTax work? GoTax takes the tax accountant interview and turns it into a simple, even fun, online experience. We ditch the big tax words and guide you through, so you get all the deductions you deserve.  Plus, we throw in a few jokes (some are shockers) to keep things light and maybe even get a grin out of you.

What do I need to get started? Just sign up with your name and tax file number.  We grab what we can from the ATO, then ask you the right questions to steer you through the deduction maze.  It helps to have your expenses and receipts handy, but you can stop and come back any time—your info is saved for when you’re ready. 

Is GoTax right for me? We’ve set it up to ask the right questions and get your return sorted properly the first go.  We’ll also give you tips, log books, and info to help you get the most out of your tax now and in the future. 

I live overseas—can I still use GoTax? Absolutely.  As long as you’re an Australian resident for tax purposes, you can use GoTax from anywhere in the world and keep your Aussie tax sorted.

What if I have questions along the way? We’ve made it simple, but if you get stuck, you can chat with an online accountant.  Your return is saved as you go, so you can take a break and come back later.  Got a curly question? Use our chat and we’ll get you sorted—if needed, we’ll even give you a call. 

What if I make a mistake? No dramas.  You can fix any errors before you lodge. Easy as.

Do I need a credit card to pay for GoTax? Nope. Paying by credit card is cheaper, but if you’d rather, we can take our fee out of your refund—so you don’t have to pay upfront. 

How quickly can I get my refund? Once you lodge, the ATO usually takes about 10 days to process your refund. 

What if I don’t have a bank account? You’ll need one to get your refund.  No bank account, no refund—simple as that. 

Can I deduct your fees from my refund? You sure can.

Are we smart enough to do your tax return? You bet.  We know tax inside out, with all the right qualifications and years of real-world experience.  You’re in safe hands. 

Maximum refund? That’s the goal. Our system is built to make sure you get every deduction you’re entitled to, with info tailored to your job and situation. We’ve boxed up all our know-how to help you get the best result. 

What is eTax? Just a fancy way of saying “online tax return.” It’s quick, easy, and you can do it from your couch. 

Can you trust doing your tax return online? Absolutely.  The ATO has strict rules to keep your info safe, and we follow them to the letter. Your details are secure with us.
