Hi,
My husband was made redundant in Dec 2022, and he was paid for in lieu of notice, genuine redundancy payment, unused annual leave and long service leave.
However, the former employer had reported all payments in a whole lot to lump sum A, instead of separating the tax-free component of genuine redundancy payment into lump sum D. We tried to contact them to rectify the error because the wrong classification would significantly affect his tax liability for FY2022. The former employer refused the request and said they had done correctly.
As they refused to refile the redundancy payment, even both redundancy letter and final payslip had clearly classified the redundancy pay items, could you please advice what can we do when my husband lodge his FY22 tax return.
