通常relocation benefit 分两部分:reimbursement & LAFHA
Reimbursement是指一些实报实销的项目:it can pay as a flat rate called relocation allowance or reimburse your actually expenses if you can provide the invoice
Another common benefit was LAFHA which is living away from home allowance. 是说因为你住在阿德,因工作需要公司把你send到墨尔本工作,由于living away from home公司给你一些补助。Most common 做法是你那边租的房子,房租可以从税前扣,也就是说这部分不需要缴税了,also excempt food allowance can paid after tax, 也就是说这部分income也不需要缴税了。
但是after 8 May 2012 Federal Budet announced the changes on LAFHA, your case is bit tracky now. The new changes was : All arrangements entered into after 8 May 2012, LAFHA can only claimed by people who maintain a home for their own use in Australia that they are living away from home for work purposes and it can be claimed for maximum period of 12 months only. It is not available for 457 visa holders any more; however you have been hired locally not from oversea originally with your current company. Therefore you can be treated as Australia resident for this purpose
也就是说,你必须在Australia 的一个城市(阿德)keep一个房子regardless rent or bought,但工作需要不能住自己的房子去到另一个城市工作,你在这十二个月之中不可以出租你在阿德的房子,因为你在墨尔本又租了房子,你可以deduct your rental in Melbourne before tax to get tax benefit |
