I was an international student in Australia and worked part-time while studying. I left Australia on 13 December 2025 and returned to my home country. During my time working in Australia, my total income was below the tax-free threshold. Now that I’ve left and may no longer be considered an Australian tax resident, I’m unsure whether I need to pay tax on the income I earned while I was there.

And what is the tax-free threshold when here for less than 6 months? Not $18,200.
See below on how it is calculated
