My refund was canceled for no reason
Hello @Markofficial,
There can be a variety of reasons for a return to be cancelled in your statement of account. Sometimes when we are processing they can become cancelled on the statement of account, however it is just us working in the background due to something being needed manual correction. Another reason can be if you are lodging it as an amendment and its outside the amendment time limit. I would suggest double checking your communication history if you have access to ATO Online Services as we may have sent you a letter in regards to the situation. If it has only recently happened I would suggest leaving it a day or two to see if it shows up on your statement of account again.
