? about PPS and tax?

[Freya]

From June 09- March 10 I received $10400 of PPS. Do I have to do a tax return? I only just realised I might have to but I dont have any paperwork, will centrelink send me any? DH is doing his tax on wed so Id prob prefer to do it then.

You will get a payment summary from them, it should arrive this week so you can do your tax.

You only need to do a tax return if you personally received income from another source or paid tax on your payment or under PAYG ITI or ITW.

My bad, read the wrong payment lol. What BR said

[briggsy's girl]

if you paid any tax on the PPS you will need to do a tax return

given you're now partnered, that income will impact your ftb part be entitlement from march through to june - i would consider doing a tax return to get as many deductions as you can legitimately get on that to make sure you get as much ftbb as possible anyway....
