please help--how much do we need to pay for medi levy surcharge?

jiayang

if 2人收入超过100K(其中一方超过50K,一方<50K), if we claim as a family, how much do we need to pay medi levy surcharge?
if we claim separately, what's the result?

fill the etax and compare

family income超过100k的，如果没有私保，按照总收入来收surcharge。如果两个人完全分开来报，超过的那个人才需要1%的surcharge.
不过原则上要求夫妻双方一起报。

赞同LS的.

如果只是男女朋友同居,可以分开报. 但是结婚登记的夫妻,还得一起报,看看有什么可以扣税的.

1%的surcharge on combined taxable income of 100K 是$1,000.

理论上是要在一起的，但是如果你们不涉及到ｃｅｎｔｅｒｌｉｎｋ　ｐａｙｍｅｎｔ，ｆｔｂ的话，放心吧，没有可能被发现的。

还有没有Joint Account earning interests 或 joint shareholders earning dividends.

应该是FBT吧。FBT is finge benefit tax，实际上就是福利税。雇主提供给雇员的福利需要缴税，一般是由雇主支付的，但雇主一般会转嫁给员工来支付。

Artcore

FTB = Family Tax Benefits, a payment you can receive to help with the cost of raising your dependent children; 政府给扶养小孩的津贴.
