Hi!
i’ve just got the message through the ATO app that my text return has been finalised. I’ve lived and worked in Australia on a WHV 417 from March 22 till March 23. I’m surprised I have to pay an amount of money for the period 22 - 23, instead of getting some money back since I’m not an Australian resident. I just want to make sure I didn’t make any mistakes?
Thank you

As we are not able to see your return, we would not be able to see if you have made an error.
Here is some information that you may find helpful.
If you disagree with an ATO decision you can lodge an objection, or an amendment if you believe an error has been made.

Hi thank you so much for this reply. @ChantelleATO
Is there an email address I can contact to explain my situation? Or a number I can contact through Skype since my visa ended and I’m back in Europe.
I cannot log in to MyGov to lodge the objection, since it sends a verification code to my old, Australian number and the digital-ID didn’t work either.
Thank you!
Hi @AnneliseMelbour,
There's a way you can contact us from Europe. Unfortunately, we don't have an email address where you can discuss your tax return.
