Hey , Yep, you're correct! Your paid maternity leave payments should be included at Salary, wages, allowances, tip, bonuses etc. If your accountant has lodged this incorrectly, you'll need to lodge an amendment of your return. Check out the info we have on how to amend your return (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals-and-families/your-tax-return/amend-your-tax-return).
