边远地区，配偶tax offset的问题

ewanka

我对Dependant tax offset不是特别理解，望求教：

我和爱人生活在边远地区。

T8  "tax offset - zone or overseas forces" 里有 一页是说working out the base amount, 我不太理解这里怎么又要填配偶啊，亲属啊什么的，是不是说政府对于纳税人的家人跟其在边远地区生活的一种福利呢？此项受配偶年龄工资限制吗？

我爱人71年后出生，有不错的薪水，无小孩及亲属等，也未享受family tax benefit 的Part B。 那像这样的情况，适用于这一条吗？

这种乱七八糟的选项一般认都不会适用的。

Maybe too late for this year but ask your employer whether they can provide remote area fringe benefits that may save you a lot.

谢谢。remote area fringe benefits大概有哪些，你了解吗？我单位好像只有车辆的salary sacrifice

work must be in a ‘remote area’ as defined for fringe benefits tax (FBT) purposes. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) publishes a list of various areas indicating whether they are remote or not, with the most recent of these lists being PSLA 2000/6.

Remote area benefits that qualify for FBT concessional treatment  can be divided into three broad categories, being remote area housing benefits, remote area rent and other remote area benefits (such as mortgage interest payments).  The FBT consequences for benefits provided vary across these categories.

Since your wife has good income, she could claim zone tax offset at her own tax return.

If your wife is at refund situation, and yours is at payable situation, then you claim your wife zone tax offset at your tax return to reduce your tax payable.
