Hi,

I am preparing tax return for my husband who is a permanent resident.

• He was overseas until end of Jan 2025 BUT STILL AN AUSTRALIAN TAX RESIDENT based on the Domicile test. His foreign income is tax exempted.
• Medicare eligibility statement confirmed he was not entitled to Medicare during this period and that he only needs to get private health insurance (PHI) by 31 Jan 2026.
• During 1 Feb - 30 Jun 2025, he was unemployed and had not other income or benefits.
• I got him PHI in Jul 2025.

For the tax return:

1. How can declare partially tax resident on the tax return?
2. How can I work out the number of days he was full 2% Medicare Levy exemption?
3. What could be the number of days for half 2% exemption?

Thanks a ton,

Yen
