Hi there,


My girlfriend has just arrived on a 417 Visa from Japan and currently still holds her job, working remotely back to her long-term employer.


From my understanding, it appears that she does not need to disclose any of her taxes paid from this occupation to the Australian government under this Visa, is this correct?


In addition to this, a friend has offered some freelance work in Australia whilst she is here on the weekends etc. I have searched and found that she can apply for an ABN to accomodate this… my question is that is she required to pay tax in Australia as well for the work she would be doing here? (Working hours would be limited to her Visa restrictions of course)

Will she need a TFN as well?


Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!


Sam
