I have worked at a restaurant for over 3 years and within that time I had never received a payslip. I didn't have a roster and worked set days discussed with my boss. I received weekly payments directly into my bank account with payment depending on my hours. I have a TFN and have super that my boss put money in. I have never made enough to get me near the tax threshold, but since I am getting a new job I will and am unsure what is going to happen with the payments I received from my old job since that is where all my income has come from. A friend told me that when they left they had to pay a lot of tax because it was never paid at the moment.

I was wondering how to lodge my taxes without a payslip (just my bank statements) and my job not submitting my income to the ATO. I can always ask them to do it, it was just never an issue.

No payment summary, no income statement, no tax withheld. Enter income earned at income question 2 on the tax return. You may need to enter an occupation at question 1, but as you have no tax withheld then the income is entered at question 2. Normal work deductions can then be claimed.

I only wonder how I can complete a tax return if I'm not in the system. My bank account for some reason is not connected with the ATO (This does not match what is held on ATO records (APS104)) and I need to call them. Is there another way or do I have to call up? Does this fall under non-lodgment?

Thank you
