Hi,

I’m confused as to why my income statement doesn’t reflect the right amount income and tax withheld, which was assessed by the ATO? I lodged my 2020-21 income tax with one employment pre-filled by the ATO and the other using a provided pay summary. It went perfectly and got assessed by the ATO. But lately when I checked the income statements under Employment section (in the ATO website), I realised there is no record for the the employment that I used the payment summary for, but surprisingly it’s still registered in the income tax under (Tax->Lodgement section) in the website. How can I get this fixed up as I need to print the history employment out?

Thanks for any input and advice!

Hi @gianglionel,


Just to clarify for the FY2021 you worked for two separate employers? One employer reported to us via Single Touch Payroll (STP). Your income info for that year shows in your ATO Online account as the prefilled amount. The gross salary and tax withheld amounts were correct.

 

The second employer looks like they didn't report via STP and instead supplied you with a paper Payment summary. You then had to manually enter this in your tax return.

 

Unfortunately, there would be no record of employment on ATO online except the information you provided in your tax return and there be no way to fix this. If the employer had reported this information via STP there would be a record.
