You'll see an estimate of your refund before you lodge it.

You're easily pleased if you think it's a gift.

True. Most people don't realise how GST and your BAS really work. But, better been able to claim it than not.

Gee, the $300-$400 I'll get back I might spend on a night on the piss saluting Rudd for raising the tax on premixes.

I got a tax *bill* for last year, and if I'm lucky, this years *return* will cancel that out... if I'm lucky, that is Rolling Eyes

i thought i was getting 12k back but i have to pay the remainder of my hecs back so only 7k, i get so much back because i can't save so i don't claim the tax free threshold and also i get payg'd at a higher rate even though im not in it. so every july i get a 'bonus' (i know its mine anyway) but its good for doing renos on the house or insurance/rego's that always come next month.

After getting a 21k bill last year, anything back this year will be good.
