If you remain an Australian resident for tax purposes, your tax obligation in Australia will stay the same. You're on the right track, you'll need to lodge your tax return and claim the foreign income tax offset. Check out the information on our website where it talks about your tax residency (https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/coming-to-australia-or-going-overseas/Your-tax-residency/) and Australian resident going overseas (https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/coming-to-australia-or-going-overseas/Australians-living-overseas/#:~:text=If%20you%20remain%20an%20Australian%20resident%2C%20you%20must%20lodge%20an,country%20where%20you%20earned%20it.).
