Hi,
I'm really not sure what to do next and am a bit lost.
I filed my 21-22 tax year return last year and used the information given to me by my employer to amend by income for the year as it was not being correctly pre-filled. This was my first tax return as I have moved to Australia from New Zealand and from the information provided in the tax residency quiz I am a tax resident of Australia.
After initially posting my return I was estimated to a get a sizeable tax return off my income for the period (five figure amount). I was then notified my return had been completed and my income was amended to only $409, significantly less that what the income statement provided by employer details.
I have since amended my return three times using the income information provided by my employer and every time it has been amended by the ATO to $409. Multiple calls to the ATO has not resolved this and I have simply been told to do another amendment.
What can I do next? My employer is telling me I earned $xx,xxx but the ATO says no, its $409 despite the fact I was receiving fortnightly salary over this tax period and was paying tax. I would like my income to be correctly stated on my income statement and receive any tax credits (if due any).
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers,
Connor
